Roots Blues Americana, Gospel and Soulful Originals

Mark Tolstrup & Jill Burnham

Join us at The Lodge on Beekman for this evening of fabulous award-winning Blues!

Based in Up State New York, Mark & Jill meld their vision and talent for a taste of New Orleans-meets-Austin. NY Blues Hall of Fame bluesman Mark Tolstrup and sultry Texas singer Jill Burnham come together where the Delta meets the Rio Grande. Over a haunting slide guitar their voices soar and blend in harmony. Mark and Jill bring a fresh original interpretation to the earliest roots of the blues. Their original songs deal with both the hard realties of life and the joys of being alive. 

Mark & Jill won the 2022 the Capital Region Thomas Edison Awards “Blues Artist of the Year”. They were the winners of the Capital Region Blues Network competition and were finalists in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis May, 2022.
