Jim Gromko, Carey Chaney and Friends in an evening of acoustic music to benefit the Manatee County Food Bank/ Meals On Wheels Plus. Free admission, donations accepted.
The Wholetones play a unique mix of bluegrass, folk, jazz, and metal, all translated through acoustic instruments. Combining impressive technical skill with the spontaneity of jazz and drive of bluegrass, they put on a captivating live show, jumping from folk to metal as easily as they do from banjo to cello. The Wholetones’ blend of genres is a result of the members’ enormously varied musical appetite. They play and listen to reggae, metal, hip-hop, bluegrass, and everything in between, and the end product is a truly original sound.
