Jim Curry's Tribute to John Denver

Jim Curry returns to the Coffee Gallery Backstage to perform the heartfelt Christmas songs of John Denver for good little boys and girls.   Jim will be joined by his merry band of elves: wife Anne on vocals and mandolin, Diane Ireland on flutes and Marty Hillman on keyboard.  The two shows at the Coffee Gallery Backstage are one stop on Curry's week-long Christmas Tour, and the Curry's last appearance at the Coffee Gallery in 2010.

Steve Weisberg will be featured, up close and personal as Jim's special guest.  Steve recorded and toured with John Denver during Denver's biggest years: 1973-77.  Steve played lead guitar, dobro, pedal steel, sang the low harmony, and wrote songs for the last 7 of JD's 9 platinum albums.   Denver recorded some of Steve's songs, most notably, "Christmas for Cowboys" which Jim and Steve will perform along with other popular Christmas tunes featured on John Denver Christmas albums.
