Sunday Serenade: Elle Sera

With soul and honesty Elle Sera’s convergence of grit and grace separates her from so many singer-songwriters of today. You can do away with any notion that a singular genre or box would contain Elle’s broad songwriting styles and even broader skills as a vocalist. Effortlessly and authentically, she flows through blues, rock, pop and country wrapped up in a singer-songwriter foothold that stir together to set her soulful vocals on fire with dynamic conviction. With pure emotion and intention–all pouring out of a barely 5’ frame– it’s a true wonder to experience the size of her voice faceted...

Sunday Serenade: Brian Dolzani

Brian Dolzani is a contemporary singer/songwriter that possesses an old soul. A listen to his music makes that point abundantly clear. So too, the fact that he lists any number of ‘60s and ‘70s songwriters as prime influences — Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Cat Stevens, Crosby, Stills and Nash, to Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, and Credence Clearwater Revival, among them — suggests that his roots reside in a great storytelling tradition. Like his forebears, Brian is all about to creating a connection to his audiences through the expression of innermost emotion. In the process, he shares a sound that’s...

Originally playing lead guitar in blues and jam bands, by his late teenage years, Johnson began writing his own songs and took to a more fitting, mellow singer/songwriter vibe. His...

Sunday Serenade: Griffin Anthony

Griff! One of our all-time, guest-favorite artists here at Jones since we began our summer music series a decade-and-a-half ago. We discovered him in 2019 and he's been delighting our winery guests every summer since then...and what a delight he is. Griff's 6' 5" frame feels as comfortable on a stage with a guitar in his hand as he is in his own living room and, along with his silky smooth baritone voice, immediately brings everyone right into that living room with him. He's one of the most relatable artists you'll see on the trail, weaving stories about life - which now include his beautiful...
