Live Music: Jeff Crosby

Singer-songwriter Jeff Crosby returns to the vineyard on Veteran’s Day! The show will have no cover charge for veterans who can also get half priced drinks during our regular hours on Veteran’s Day from 12-8pm.
There is no cover for Veterans, $10 per Wine Club member, and $15 per non-member. Buy your tickets here!
Jeff is a musician who, among many musical accomplishments, has had two songs featured on the critically-acclaimed television show Sons of Anarchy! Born and raised in a sleepy mountain town in Northern Idaho, this talented musician has managed to delineate the sometimes amorphous genre of “Americana”, package it perfectly, and deliver it to his listeners time and again.
His songs present almost as pages ripped out of an intimately personal diary, detailing the rugged beauty of what it means to have loved, lost and kept on the move. There seems to be no shortage of inspiration as Crosby is one of the last few “troubadours” that truly lives the life he sings about.
Check out Jeff’s music on iTunesSpotify, or YouTube!
