This father / son duo is a rare treat to witness, and an extraordinary event in the intimate space of The Buttonwood Tree.

Khalif Neville, son of famed New Orleans Jazz musician Charles Neville, has come into his musical own. His personal musical endeavors are far and wide, but he has a deep rooted love for Jazz, particularly solo Jazz piano.

The Kennedys
Saturday, April 15 @ 8 pm $20 Reservations Suggested
Pete and Maura Kennedy return for a lively, fun acoustic folk pop show. 
Pete and Maura Kennedy, both East Coast natives, met in Austin, Texas, joined forces with Nanci Griffith’s Blue Moon Orchestra for a couple of years, and set out on a road that, for two decades, has led them not only west but all over the US and the UK many times. This year, they celebrate their twentieth anniversary both as a band and a married couple. Rather than indulge in a nostalgic look backward, they’ve taken Dylan’s dictum “don’t look back” to heart; writing and recording forty new songs.

Ann Sweeten Steinway Pianist 
Sunday, April 16 @ 7 pm $20
After nearly 20 years of enamoring audiences on the Concert stage and on Radio/Internet Airwaves, Ann Sweeten’s signature style is recognized world-wide and now her new album, Where Butterflies Dance is without question her most ambitious and successful to date. Will Ackerman, co-producer, had this to say: "There is no greater compliment I can give any musician than to say they have their own artistic voice. They are uniquely themselves and bring something utterly their own to the world. Ann Sweeten is one of those rare musicians. The grace one associates with Ann’s performance has been matched by what I believe are the best melodies of her career. At a time when many artists might choose to coast on their notoriety, Ann has raised the bar considerably and we, the listeners, are the beneficiaries of her ambition and skill. Really brilliant."
