Both Corwin and Grace are accomplished musicians and wonderful people. They adjusted well to the setting here and put on a wonderful show. We’re happy to have them back any time that they’re in the area." - Bernie Butcher (owner) "Towse is a great young talent that fills any venue with positivity. Towse's unique style has been clearly influenced by their time traveling the globe." - Fred Johnson Co owner Starling Bar Sonoma CA “I followed Corwin and Grace to many dances on their tour for fun music bursting with creativity.” - Margaret P "Corwin Zekley is an accomplished and charismatic performer. Audiences are immediately struck by their virtuosity and exciting stage presence. Corwin is adept at jumping from genre to genre and they have the ability to play with other musicians with sensitive backing and then taking center stage with impressive solos. They're punctual, polite and an artist who I would hire without a second thought." - Daniel E Corwin Zekley and their band of talented musicians are a delight! We have had the pleasure of booking Corwin at both Idyllwild Brewbub and FERRO Restaurant in Idyllwild, CA and their professionalism made it so easy. With a unique genre and amazing talent, Corwin is highly entertaining, and it is such a joy to watch them perform. With their fabulous attire and terrific stage presence, all our guests were happily engaged in their shows. I would highly recommend Corwin for any job or gig. - Lorri Ferro "They are a delightful duo. Grace's sound is always gentle and clear, she keeps a steady rhythm and tempo on keyboard, while Corwin plays the catchy melodies on fiddle. Their music, played acoustically, fills the room. The interplay between them is always well balanced, they are a great team." - Alice W “Our outdoor wedding felt like a festival. Corwin strolled along and played their violin while the guests conversed and drank their cocktails—it was enchanting. They seemed to know exactly the right tune to play for their audience.” Jeanne and Greg Smith More about Corwin and Grace: Virtuoso violinist, Corwin Zekley was born with a fiddle in their hands and plays with an intensity yet delicacy that pulls on the heartstrings of all who hear them.
