Fresh off a tour with Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, and John Mellencamp, the Wiyos perform original songs fusing various American traditional musical idioms with their own contemporary influences. Their shows are as visually satisfying as they are sonically evocative, with original compositions and covers from Tin Pan Alley to Texas Swing.
