Trinity House Theatre Benefit Concert and Tribute to the music of Jan Krist

Join us for the Trinity House Theatre Benefit Concert as we pay tribute to one of our favorite songwriters, Jan Krist.

Artists joining us for the concert include Jill Jack, Billy Brandt, Two Lane Bridge (featuring Tim Diaz and Brad Stuart), Jim Bizer and Annie and Rod Capps.

When Bob Darden, a critic for Billboard Magazine first heard Jan Krists music, he was driving down one of those Texas back roads. Within a minute, he had to pull over to the side of the road he was that moved by her plangent, poignant song, Someone.

Those who know Krist's work are never surprised by that story. They have all had the same sort of experience. Krist is a great singer-songwriter: Expert guitar chops (including the use of rich open tunings) literate lyrics, and the indescribable ratio between emotion, honesty and humor that makes for a devoted following.

In 1992, Jan became a Kerrville New Folk Finalist. She has since played this famous song-writers festival 3 times.

She has appeared at several festivals from Pennsylvania to California. Highlights include the Ann Arbor Folk Festival (MI), Tree Frog Fest (MN), Bliss Fest (MI), Wheatland Music Fest (MI) and Cornerstone Festival (IL).

Jan has appeared at many renowned folk clubs around the country including The Tin Angel (PA), Eddies Attic (GA), The World Cafe (PA) , Uncle Calvins (TX), Madison Folklore Society (WI), The Ark (MI), Club Passim (MA), The Bluebird (TN), just to name a few.
