Like a River: A Celebration of the Life and Music of Jimmy Boyer
Local musician Jimmy Boyer died much too soon. The singer/songwriter passed in January, and tonight friends and fellow musicians are gathering to honor Boyer, who played with countless bands over the years—including the Freak Mountain Ramblers, who’ll play tonight along with Kevin “Bingo” Richey, Lewi Longmire, and many others.
