<li>Dinner and cocktail seating and service begins 1 hour before showtimes.</li><h2>All about the lyrics…</h2>Exploring musical/lyrical genres from jazz, pop, film, theater and even the blues! And all with a wink, a sly smile and a lot of fun!Joyce Lyons, (AEA, SAG-AFTRA) is part singer, actress and comedian. Reared in Gaithersburg, Maryland, she found her way to Colorado Women’s College where she studied with one Durango’s favorite musicians, Tom MacCluseky. After college, Joyce headed to New York City, where she trod the streets for work; a little waitressing (very little), a little office work (more than a very little), a lot of singing and acting to boot. Joyce worked with some of New York’s finest musicians, from the exquisite writings of Dick Lieb, to the spellbinding arrangements of Lee Musiker and the auspicious and ever playful lyrics of bass accompanist Jay Leonhart. A proponent of the “lyric is everything,” Joyce began her master class at Fort Lewis College several years ago at the suggestion of Mr. MacCluskey. “There is no greater joy than when a student ‘gets it!’ “When they have connected to something deep inside and bring it forth in their performance.” Leaving in NYC in late 2009, Joyce has continued her musical/theatrical journey to the upper midwest of Minnesota, where she has developed a loyal following."There’s a new voice in town, and the local jazz scene is all the better for it."— Andrea Canter, The Jazz Policewww.joycelyons.netA native of Chicago, Phil Aaron studied piano and composition at Northwestern University, The University of Illinois and Berklee School of Music.

Known as a guy who excels at many styles, Graydon has played with the Twin Cities’ top jazz singers and modern jazz groups, and has toured around the United States and Cuba. Graydon's unique and groove-based compositions can be heard with his own quartet, the Graydon Peterson Quartet, and the trio Firebell.
