Chris KozaJoAnna JamesTwo of the Twin Cities finest singer-songwriters share this special Thanksgiving weekend evening at the Cedar. Chris and JoAnna will each bring their full bands, and plan on contributing to each others' sets. To preserve the moment, they'll be recording the evening for possible future release as live recording(s). Special guest will be Jessy Green (Foo Fighters) on violin!

"Gimmick-free, Chris Koza writes folk-pop tunes with time-honored hooks
and traditional vocals. He's organic and authentic, putting him a cut above
the rabble, and he opts for lyrical observations that linger in your head
instead of conning you with suicidal or ecstatic melodramas." (Britt Robson, City Pages). "JoAnna James has a stage presence so pure and intense that it makes you forget that you are indeed a stranger listening to a song. You forget that you've never met her. You are drawn in, shaken up a bit, and alarmed at the strength of the deep, rich vocal power pouring into the room...She is truly a unique combination of astounding natural talent and honest writing, with a respect for great musicians that have influenced her path." (Volume One Magazine, February 2005).
