The Oster, Daley & Adrianna Trio will be featured in Mendocino Stories & Music Series on Friday, May 16. Influenced by traditional bluegrass and the more contemporary styles, the trio is a blend of close harmonies and fancy pickin' with a uniquely Northern California/Mendocino County sound. Music starts at 7:30PM at the Mendocino Hotel. The musical flow of these talented multi-instrumentalists covers a wide-ranging repertoire of tastefully realized traditional tunes, creative contemporary covers, and inspired original songwriting. Equally sharing lead vocal duties, the father/ daughter harmony of Kenny and Adrianna reflects the classic traditional family harmonies of the past. The addition of Bob's voice to this family sound offers a sweetly satisfying blend. The Oster, Daley and Adrianna Trio captures the blue-collar sound of the vineyard and winery lifestyle unique to Northern California. Their new CD "Standing In The Trees" is the long-term realization of this Mendocino musical culture, and the finest of Mendocino County acoustic music. All ages are welcome! Doors open at 6:30 PM for bistro menu and libations. Reserved table seating $20, $15 general admission.
