Headliners: Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and fiddler Laurie Lewis draws influence from bluegrass and old-time country to Tin Pan Alley, jazz and early rock ‘n roll. Jon Graboff earned the moniker “pedal steel guru” from years of working for everyone from Ryan Adams to Willie Nelson, David Byrne, Carrie Underwood and Yo La Tengo. For Saturday’s show, he’s bringing his “Buck Owens meets Phil Spector” country and pop influenced holiday instrumentals.
