New Year's Eve party with Mark DuFresne & Matney Cook at the Conway Muse

The Mark DuFresne Band plays upstairs for a great Renaissance Room dance of blues and rhythm & blues music. Dufresne's work on the chromatic harmonica is considered as some of the most innovative in Blues music, and his skill at circular breathing consistently leaves audiences amazed. The Washington Blues Society has awarded him best vocalist, songwriter and harmonica more than any other artist. Mark was lead vocalist for Roomful of Blues from 2002 to 2006, and who won the W.C. Handy award for Best Band in 2004.

The band members are Mark DuFresne (vocal and harmonica),
Tim Lerch (Guitar), Alan Issacson (drums), and Kelly Leifer (bass).
