About this Event
Americana Singer/Songwriter, Guitar & Banjo
Jalan makes a long-unanticipated return to the Crooners stage, bringing his unique, often-imitated, never-fully understood, high energy performance of downhome, Western Americana, fingerstyle guitar and banjo clamor, and run-on sentences! There will be singing, harmonica, foot stomping and short, but pithy anecdotes that are borderline true!
Jalan Crossland: Vocals, Acoustic & Electric Guitar, 5 & 6 String Banjo, Harmonica, Foot Drumming, Witticisms
Jalan Crossland is nationally acclaimed by audiences, critics, and his musical peers as being a premier acoustic guitarist, banjo player, singer-songwriter, and engaging showman. Along with dozens of regional contest awards, his extraordinary guitar work earned him National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship Runner Up honors and the State Flatpick Championship title of his home state. His album, “Singalongs For The Apocalypse”, won Wyoming Public Radio’s People’s Choice - Album Of The Year award. In recognition for his contribution to the arts in Wyoming, he was bestowed the Governor’s Arts Award.
"Onstage, dressed in what might be called ‘cowboy carny’ (denim, buckle boots, and a bowler hat,) he is a bundle of loose-limbed energy, a lovable bad boy who alternates love songs with knockdown banjo tunes about towns known for nothing more than 'hard luck, bad blood, bullshit, and beer'." - Michael Segell, New York Times
