Lady and the Tramp

Lady and the Tramp

Pooh Stevenson and Jim Spring

World Instrumental music describes the music of Lady and the Tramp AKA Pooh Stevenson and Jim Spring. From a snappy Celtic jig to a slow dreamy Brazilian waltz to a familiar jazz standard, the mandolin and guitar duo move seamlessly between genres. Playing together since 2011, they have cultivated a passionate following of committed acoustic music lovers.

Anna Pearl & Austin Kaufmann

music. They've been playing together for about three years.

In the late 1960’s, Johnny Z began his performance career as a folk artist, occasionally opening for the majors of the day, such as Friend & Lover, Steve Goodman, and Jerry Lee Lewis (the latter, a truly unusual pairing at a UAW union hall, in Lansing, Michigan), but generally finding audiences in coffee houses and social/political rallies. He also happens to be a Coffeehouse regular!
