The Jack Grace Band in the Garden!
Colony Woodstock Presents: The Jack Grace Band in the Garden!
Join us for an evening of Rockabilly/folk-rock on our outdoor main stage!
Featuring: Jack Grace (guitar/vox), James Buhre (upright bass) & Eric Puente (drums)
Jack Grace was born in Brooklyn, NY. He has spent decades on the road in the US, Canada and Europe, playing his “Country Rock with an occasional Bossa Nova Twist”.
Known for his five songs in the cult hit, Super Troopers , which Jack also aided in scoring. The song, “Big Bear,” is also featured in Super Troopers 2 , making Jack the only artist to have music in both movies.
He has performed with a wide variety of artists, from Gordon Lightfoot to Jerry Lee Lewis to Norah Jones, Doc Watson to Fishbone, Merle Haggard to The Meters and his original songbook of many genres blends with them all. He is an accomplished finger-picking solo performer that could make you laugh or have you shed a tear, as well as a storied band leader, comfortably riding his well worn power trio into a dance frenzy or leading his decadent 7 piece outfit (complete with The Broken Mariachi horn section) deep into his sometimes humorous, yet often heartbreaking repertoire.
