Jan Krist & Jim Bizer at the Grand River Folk Arts Society Acoustic Saturday Nights February 27, 2010

Jan Krist and Jim Bizer hail from Detroit, justly famous as Motown, but home to myriad musical influences. They met and made music together while still in their teens. On their own they have each garnered acclaim as songwriters and performers.

As members of the Yellow Room Gang, Jim & Jan add another dimension to their diverse musical spectrum. Intricately layered instrumental parts and stunning vocal harmonies are just part of the magic. At the heart is the profound respect and playful interaction Jan and Jim bring to each other’s songs, the spark of two remarkable artists working and playing together. It’s a special kind of communion between them and their audience that transcends what is and tries to catch a glimpse of what may be.
