In Hollywood, they say it takes smart actors to play stupid characters, and nice guys to play nasty villains. RONNY COX is the poster-boy for the latter point. He played slithery corporate snakes in "RoboCop" and "Total Recall;" but as a singer-songwriter, he is a study in easygoing amiability and unforced charisma. He charms crowds with self-teasing humor, tart progressive insight, and a lulling Southwestern folk sound. His repertoire is a smart mix of witty ditties, bluesy swing tunes, heart-on-sleeve romances, and real-life anthems. He has appeared The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, NPR, & more!
Among acoustic guitarists, South Carolinian JACK WILLIAMS is near-legendary. Having avoided the compromises of the commercial music industry during his 50+ year professional career, he has always toured "under the radar." He is immersed in the acoustic folk scene, making appearances at events like Kerrville Folk Festival, SummerFest, etc. Kevin Oliver of No Depression Magazine said, "...a musical style that's equal parts folk storytelling and Tin Pan Alley songcraft, delivered with the impassioned soul of an old blues singer." As a guitarist, he accompanied Tom Paxton, Peter Yarrow, Mickey Newbury and Harry Nilsson. Invited onstage by Arlo Guthrie to sing a song, he then joined the group for the concert encores. He produced all of his own recordings plus CDs by Mickey Newbury, Eric Schwartz, Carla Ulbrich, The Malvinas, and Ronny Cox. As another credit to his guitar skills, Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul and Mary) called Jack "The best guitar-player I've ever heard."
