Gin Mill Hollow with Wise Jennings

For more than eight years and almost 600 shows, the ever-evolving Americana outfit Gin Mill Hollow has been showcasing their unique approach to string-band music throughout the Midwest and beyond. Born as an acoustic duo at the Up North Bar in Madison, Wisconsin, the group found traction in the area after adding mandolin and eventually percussion to the mix. As a four-piece band, Gin Mill Hollow’s performances sound more like a rock show, often with electric guitar and effected mandolin solos soaring over driving rhythm and harmony. Blending bluegrass and folk with jazz and blues, the live experience is enhanced by an engaging lighting display, syncing the aural and visual senses. With two studio albums to their credit, the band continues to write new material with plans to record and release these works in various media formats.

Wise Jennings is a husband and wife duo from southern Wisconsin.  As original artists they have made a name for themselves delivering high energy shows with a unique song writing and performance style.  They sound like a Punk, Psycho-billy, Alt-Americana, Outlaw Country burrito if there was such a thing and you could listen to it.
