Del Norte Association for Cultural Awareness continues its Performance Series with award-winning duo Sundae + Mr. Goessl, on Friday, March 11, at 7 p.m., at the Tolowa Event Center, in Smith River.While some label their style as "Vintage Pop" and others deem it "Cowboy Jazz," there's one adjective that everyone can agree on: delightful. Sundae + Mr. Goessl features award-winning vocalist Kate Voss (Earshot Magazine's Vocalist of the Year, two-time Seattle-Kobe Vocal Jazz Princess) and virtuoso guitarist, Jason Goessl. This charming wife/husband duo have a style all their own and incorporate humor, vintage style, nostalgia, and serious musicianship in their act.“We love bringing back the sounds from a by-gone era, and spreading the joy of music like Johnny Appleseed,” says Voss. The duo have been in the business of delighting audiences across the United States for the past six years, while they have released six albums and performed over 1,000 shows together.#placement_573654_0_i{width:100%;max-width:550px;margin:0 auto;}var rnd = window.rnd || Math.floor(Math.random()*10e6);var pid573654 = window.pid573654 || rnd;var plc573654 = window.plc573654 || 0;var abkw = window.abkw || '';var absrc = 'https://ads.empowerlocal.co/adserve/;ID=181918;size=0x0;setID=573654;type=js;sw='+screen.width+';sh='+screen.height+';spr='+window.devicePixelRatio+';kw='+abkw+';pid='+pid573654+';place='+(plc573654++)+';rnd='+rnd+';click=CLICK_MACRO_PLACEHOLDER';var _absrc = absrc.split("type=js"); absrc = _absrc[0] + 'type=js;referrer=' + encodeURIComponent(document.location.href) + _absrc[1];document.write('');In addition to her many awards as a vocalist, Voss studied under Greta Matassa, and she's had many opportunities to sing across the United States. Sundae often surprises her audiences with a melodica solo and with ten years as a piano instructor under her belt, it is quite a treat. However, she proves most delightful and captivating when she injects her verve into these Golden Age songs, and JazzTimes notes, "Her voice nails the authenticity of this era.”Mr. Goessl (Jason Goessl) was born and raised in a small village in eastern Wisconsin and became an accomplished jazz guitarist by age 17. At age 18, Mr. Goessl started his trek west. “I made it as far as Eau Claire, Wisconsin,” Goessl says. While he studied music at the University there, he also played with such jazz greats as saxophonist Michel Brecker and guitarist Charlie Byrd. With his insatiable desire for creativity and elevation, Mr. Goessl eventually made his way to Seattle, Washington, where he makes a living as one of the area's top guitarists.Sundae + Mr. Goessl are currently touring the United States and Canada in their 30-foot Winnebago with their rescue chihuahua Jackie Osassness, and they are looking forward to bringing their unique act to our area. While they are here, they are also planning a musical outreach activity with local students.Voss sums it up nicely: “We plan on making fantastic music together for the rest of our lives.”Tickets for the concert are available at Del Norte Office Supply in Crescent City and at Lucky 7 Casino in Smith River or online at dnaca.eventbrite.com. Remaining tickets will be available at the door, which opens at 6:00 p.m. night of the concert.
