Sculpterra Winery Concert in Paso Robles features Jill Knight

The monthly concert series called Wine-Down Wednesdays returns to Sculpterra. It's every 2nd Wednesday 6-8pm, through October. We kick off the 2017 series with longtime local favorite Jill Knight. San Luis Obispo native Tim Jackson will open the show at 6pm.

Jill Knight's soulful sound is unmistakable. A native of Savannah Georgia, Jill Knight delivers a unique musical blend of Americana, blues and rock. She's a longtime Central Coast favorite, heard regularly on The Krush 92.5. Her many awards include a nomination for the LA music awards Best Female Vocalist, finalist at the Telluride Troubadour competition, finalist at the National Academy of Songwriters "Songwriter of the Year" contest, finalist in Billboard Magazine's "Best Unsigned Band" contest. Jill has toured and shared stages with India Arie, Shawn Colvin, David Wilcox, John Prine, The Doobie Brothers, and many others. "It's hard to say which is better -- the song or the way Jill Knight sings it." (Performing Songwriter Magazine). http://www.jillknight.com/

Tim Jackson just released his tenth album, entitled "Gasoline & Guitar Strings". He'll tell you stories about playing San Luis Obispo clubs like The Spindle and The Dark Room (for a video sample of those days, search for Tim Jackson 1984 on youtube). Raised on the sounds of Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, The Beatles, and the Who, Tim is a true original, a storytelling songwriter who will also amaze you with his guitar work. http://www.timjackson.net/
