Barry Jekowsky
The Utah born singer/songwriter, Brenn Hill is known to create music that not only pays homage to Western's music's finest traditions, but also serves as a passport to today's Mountain West. His sixth album, What a Man’s Got To Do, is a collection of songs filled with interesting characters and observations on life, love and the indomitable western spirit. At 16, he performed at the famed National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, NV. He recorded his first album when he was age 20 and soon became a popular performer on the Western music circuit. His debut album, Rangefire, earned him the Rising Star Award from the Academy of Western Artists (AWA). "I describe myself as a little bit of George Strait, a little bit of Bruce Springsteen, and a whole lot of Ian Tyson and John Denver," says Mr. Hill. This will be his first performance with a symphonic orchestra.
Raised on a ranch on the Mouse River near Towner, North Dakota, cowboy poet Rodney Nelson currently works as a part-time brand inspector, horse trainer and aging rodeo performer. Audiences throughout America know Rod as a popular rural humorist, entertainer, banquet speaker, and columnist.
