Vaudevillian Ragtime Blues. On tour now with Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp, and Willie Nelson! The Wiyos derive inspiration from the great dance bands and house party music of 80-90 years ago, the syncopation of swing, the grit and intensity of rural blues, the bouncing rhythms of piedmont fingerpicking, and the vocal antics, mannerisms and physical comedy of vaudeville-era performers. "The group brings exuberance and intensity to these vintage styles, and its performances are layered with vaudevillian stage antics" -The New Yorker, on The Wiyos We have expanded our presence at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts by renovating a performance space for Calliope on the PCA campus. Join us as we present The Wiyos in our new space. Watch our website for additional programming this exciting new venue! For tickets: 412-361-1915, calliope@calliopehouse.org, www.calliopehouse.org
