The Barley Jacks with Brian Wicklund
“Synergy is the interaction of forces so that their combined effect is greater than the sum of their individual parts.” – an apt description for the Barley Jacks. Brian Wicklund’s mastery of the fiddle and mandolin is perfectly complemented by the virtuosity of Joe Cruz on guitar and Kevin Rowe on bass. The first thing an audience notices is the way these amazing musicians interact onstage.
Celebrating their 11th year together in 2011, Monroe Crossing dazzles audiences with an electrifying blend of classic bluegrass, bluegrass gospel, and heartfelt originals. Their airtight harmonies, razor sharp arrangements, and on-stage rapport make them audience favorites across the United States and Canada.
