Honey Whiskey Trio in concert with Donna Lynn Caskey

The Honey Whiskey Trio explores harmony in folk, bluegrass and any melody that catches the ear. Through their powerful, yet sweet harmonies, body percussion, haunting melodies and vitality on stage, they captivate and move their audiences. These storytellers in song found their roots in vocal jazz, all singing in Pacific Standard Time – CSU Long Beach’s award winning vocal jazz ensemble. In 2013 Honey Whiskey Trio won the 29th annual Harmony Sweepstakes National Competition, also winning Audience Favorite at both the Regional and National sweepstakes. (www.honeywhiskeytrio.com)

Self-described “Banjo Gal” Donna Lynn Caskey honors folk tradition while taking it to sometimes edgy new places performing mostly original songs featuring clawhammer banjo. Her heartfelt, engaging performances can inspire audiences to sing along, to weep at a soul-stirring ballad, and to laugh at playful one-liners amidst occasional bouts of tuning.
