Listen Up Brunswick Presents The Kennedys

We are pleased to announce our next concert. Circle Friday, March 24, on your calendars and join us as we welcome back our friends, musicians and crowd-pleasers, The KENNEDYS!

The Kennedys began performing together in 1992, shortly after they met. Maura, born and raised in Syracuse, N.Y., was living in Austin, Texas at the time, while Pete, born and raised in Washington, D.C., was on the road with Nanci Griffith. Maura, a former computer programmer, moved to Austin in 1989 to be a full-time musician.

The pair's musical influences are quite eclectic: Buddy Holly, the Everly Brothers, the Beatles and the Byrds, but also jazz, blues and world music. Pete Kennedy'sbackground includes a series of legendary shows with Kate Wolf in the early 1980s, and he can be heard playing slide guitar on Griffith's Grammy-winning album Other Voices, Other Rooms. He has won 20 Washington-Area Music Awards and was named Artist of the Year in 1992. (source: Richard Skelly, all music.com).

Accomplished musicians, singers, songwriters and storytellers, Pete plays the acoustic guitar, electric sitar, bass and ukulele, while Maura plays acoustic and electric guitars and ukulele.
