Swearingen and Kelli Live at the Bull Run

Folk and country artists Swearingen and Kelli will be live at the Bull Run Restaurant Saturday, May 4 at 8:00pm.

Swearingen & Kelli (AJ Swearingen and Jayne Kelli) hit the ground running. They released their self-titled album in 2013, married in 2014, and returned several years later with 2017’s “The Marrying Kind.” They were a self-contained unit – a DIY duo capable of writing, recording, producing, and releasing their own records — with a long string of cross-country tours. They performed in concert halls, opera houses and living rooms, and even teamed up with local orchestras in cities like Cleveland for symphonic shows spotlighting the songs of their 1970s heroes, including Carole King, Fleetwood Mac, and Cat Stevens. Other songwriters took note of the gorgeous melodies and evocative lyrics of songs like “You’re Not Here With Me” (written by AJ and released on Swearingen & Kelli’s debut), with longtime folksinger Tom Rush recording his own version of the song with harmony partner Nanci Griffith on the album “What I Know.”

They continue to pay homage to the spirit of ’60s and ’70s folk and country music, supporting the stage for legends ranging from Crystal Gayle and Kenny Rogers, to folk icons Tom Rush and David Bromberg. With the new work in hand and accompanying tour set, the pair defies the odds and celebrates an indomitable spirit. Home to AJ and Jayne has become the road, the stage, and the people they meet at every show.

Doors open at 6pm for dinner and seating. Showtime is 8pm.

TICKET PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE DINNER.
