Kenny Kosek has appeared with Jerry Garcia, John Denver, and James Taylor among others, and can currently be seen in the toe-tapping Viagra commercial. Both of these exceptional musicians are now part of Margot Leverett and the Klezmer Mountain Boys. We're sure that your the members of folkjam would jump at the opportunity to attend and participate in this rollicking event.
