Rusty and Jan
WILLIAM "RUSTY" CROWELL: Rusty's guitar playing is the result of more than 35 years of human study displayed on a canvas of music. From early experience at age 17 his music took shape in the traditional path of High school "battle of the bands" to college bars. Improvisation and technical expertise are the hallmark of his guitar playing. These days Rusty expresses his life experiences through his original songs as well as with his unique interpretation of traditional & cover songs. He recently started playing banjo with the Pennsport String Band. JAN ALBA: Jan's experience on the flute spans over twenty-five years. She began playing as a young girl and her studies included classical training. During those years she won awards at several competitions on both the state and district level. She was a member of the All State and All county bands. In college, Jan studied Music Education. Currently she teaches privately and is a member of the Tri-County Symphonic Band. In addition to flute, Jan plays saxophone and has recently become a member of the Pennsport String Band. OUR STORY: The collaboration of Rusty and Jan began in December 2000 when they were each recruited by a mutual friend to play in a Christmas Eve service. Following the event they agreed to explore how their divergent backgrounds would complement each other. Combined, Rusty's experience with "music by ear" and Jan's background as a classically trained flutist they create a modern and innovative interpretation of many well known songs. They play a diverse assortment of styles including classical, originals, popular, and folk to name a few. They are available for many venues including: Coffee Houses, Bars, House Concerts, Weddings & other special events. ..
