BETHEL — Bethel Area Arts & Music (BAAM) is welcoming the Jacob Jolliff Band to Bethel on Thursday, October 13. They will perform at The Gem, 48 Cross St, at 7 p.m. Doors will open at 6 p.m. Drinks and pizza will be for sale.

Jacob Jolliff grew up just south of Portland, OR. He was awarded a full scholarship to The Berklee College of Music in Boston in 2007. Shortly after graduating from Berklee, he won the National Mandolin Championship. In 2014, he joined the progressive bluegrass group, Yonder Mountain String Band. He toured with YMSB until the end of 2019, releasing two albums with them. Currently, the mandolinist is focusing on his own group, The Jacob Jolliff Band, which includes some of the most virtuosic young acoustic musicians in the world. With The JJB, he released an album of all original material in 2018 entitled “Instrumentals Vol. 1.”

Tickets are “Pay What You Can” with proceeds benefiting future BAAM programming. Tickets can be purchased in advance at www.thegemtheater.com or at the door. Bethel is the first stop on their fall tour. Let’s give them a warm welcome to Bethel!
