The Music House is proud to welcome the Younce Guitar Duo in concert on Sunday April 12 at 3:00PM

An instrumental duo, Jerry Younce and his son, Ryan, perform acoustic improvisational music that is heavily influenced by jazz, gypsy guitar, flamenco and other world music, including Celtic and Latin rhythms.

The Younce Guitar Duo was formed in 2008, when Ryan invited his father to join him for a gig he had booked in Bellaire, Michigan. The joy and enthusiasm they have while playing their music is infectious, and their relaxed yet energetic manner is a testament to their musicianship
