Occidental Gypsy
Occidental Gypsy’s unique approach to pop, jazz, and dance music stems from the influence of Gypsy Swing founders, Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli. The members of the group possess a deep knowledge and reverence for the Gypsy style and are honored to bring their music to the audiences who share their enthusiasm. |

Lil' Ed & The Blues
Imperials
The Washington Post describes Lil' Ed's music as “contagious wildness.” The Philadelphia Inquirer expresses it as “raucous and hugely entertaining.” But no matter how you describe it, Lil’ Ed’s seriously inspired music will take you on a fast trip from your chair to your feet.

Corky Siegel & The Chamber Blues
Is it blues, is it classical with a bit of folk added? Gritty Chicago blues, folk and classical chamber music might not seem like a match made in Heaven - until you hear composer and harmonica virtuoso Corky Siegel bring them together. Back for their second visit to Long Grove.

Vance Gilbert
For years, Vance Gilbert has been taking audiences across the country by storm. And according to a review in the Fort Worth Star, Vance brings "... the voice of an angel, the wit of a devil, and the guitar playing of a god..."
In other words, we couldn't be more pleased to introduce Vance
to Long Grove. |

The Special Consensus Bluegrass Band
Special Consensus is a superb bluegrass band in a classic vein but with more than enough modern sensibilities to attract every music lover. The vocals are spotless, the playing as shiny as a newly minted penny, and music like this is the reason people love bluegrass. |
