Music
JUkeJUke is a four-piece, "post-blues," hybrid with a high motor and bottomless soul.
Spearheaded by frontman/harmonica-whiz/singer, Eric Garcia, JUke's content touches on non-traditional subject matter while simultaneously keeping their crowd moving with a smile on their faces. Harold Trucco is our ridiculously amazing guitar player. The addition of Brian Lange on the drums, and the amazing Brian Tate now have the band firing on all cylinders.
JUke's high-energy live performances and imaginative lyrical depth have thrilled music fans from coast to coast.
They have both backed and opened for G. Love and Zach Deputy, opened for Gary Clark Jr. and wowed folks at festivals such as Wanee, Hulaween, and many more.
Art After Dark is made possible by the generosity of The Addison Hines Charitable Trust.
Support for the Docent Program was provided by The Donald and Linda Silpe Endowment for the Professional Development of Docents and The Marcia Mahon Education Endowment Fund.
Support for Open Studio was provided by The Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Schott Endowment for Education.
