Newberry & Verch with Opening Act TBD

Longtime Troubadour attendees will fondly remember April Verch. She’s been packing the place for 20 years. She’s now performing with world-renowned Ozarks banjo player, guitarist and songwriter Joe Newberry as Newberry & Verch. Joe Newberry comes from a family of singers and dancers. He took up the guitar and banjo as a boy and learned fiddle tunes from great Missouri fiddlers. April Verch grew up listening to her Dad’s country band play for dances in the Ottawa Valley, Ontario. She started step dancing at age three and fiddling at age six. Together, they display the roots of their music, their love of performing, and their strong musical connection. Original songs join timeless classics. Lively fiddle and banjo numbers combine with traditional dance steps to illustrate happy times when people made their own fun.
