Jessie and the Gents
If ever there were a band that the audience demanded a return to Blueberry, it is Jessie & the Gents.
This award-winning Swiss group drew enthusiastic responses from their audiences at Blueberry 2019, and are sure to repeat the feat this summer. We were all disappointed last summer when travel complications prevented them from crossing the Atlantic. ‘Acoustic-country’ may be the best description of a versatile group who perform original material in addition to songs that will be familiar to all.
Jessie & the Gents are: Jessie Hardegger (vocals, mandolin), Rick Noorlander (guitar, vocals), Markus Fritzsche (bass, vocals), Rainer Hagmann (fiddle), and Putzie Mayr (Dobro, vocals).
