Warren and Flick met at the 2015 Acoustic Music Seminar (AMS), a program for young string players from around the world to collaborate and hone their improvisation, composition and performance abilities.
Both are graduates of University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance.
They have collaborated on two albums, “Kestrel” and “Waxwing”. Combining Jacob’s classical foundation and Grant’s experience in bluegrass and jazz, their contrasting backgrounds give this collaboration a unique and compelling musical narrative.
The show is presented by the The Grand Rapids Town Hall Committee and Historical Society of Grand Rapids.
