Join us for a night of Acoustic Americana and Hill Country Blues featuring Blues Guitarist Ben Barton and Americana Singer-songwriter Andru Gomez. This duo offers a captivating blend of heartfelt Americana storytelling and bluesy guitar riffs, promising a dynamic evening of music. 

Ben Barton is a blues guitarist based in Moscow, ID. Drawing on his roots in Mississippi and Memphis, Ben's music reflects the rich traditions of the Mississippi Hill Country and the Delta while adding his own distinctive touch.

Montana-born, Idaho-raised musician Andru Gomez has opened for national and regional acts alike, including Horsefeathers, Scott Weiland, Hillstomp, Finn Riggins, Bart Budwig, and more. With the use of clever live guitar looping, subtly crafted lyrics, and bluesy Harmonica, there is much more happening than a one-man show. Andru's album "A Good Heartache" can be heard on major streaming platforms.
