An Evening of Jugband Music w/ The Dianas & Jonny Kleinman!

  • Red Light Cafe 553-1 Amsterdam Avenue Northeast Atlanta, GA, 30306 United States (map)

Join Atlanta artists Jonny Kleinman and The Dianas Jug band for a night of clever music!

Jonny Kleinman is a banjo plunking, mando choppin, guitar pickin songwriter from Atlanta, GA. His first ever EP, Another Day Older, drops this March and features Charles Mitchell on mandolin, Chelsea Szegidewicz on guitar, bass, and vocals, sisters Ariel Root Wolpe and Kendra Wolpe on vocals, Jon Mitchell on drums, and producer Will Robertson on upright bass and guitar. This April at the Red Light Cafe marks Jonny’s first live performance following the EP’s release.

THE DIANAS

“The most fun I ever had in my next-door neighbor’s back yard.”

THE DIANAS perform a wild mixture of five-hundred-year-old songs and unique originals. Playing all acoustic instruments, they employ quirky arrangements and a sincere devotion to joywhile managing to avoid perfection in every possible way. At least three of their songs include animal noises.

The band features novelist Phillip DePoy on guitar, mandolin, dulcimer, harmonica, and vocals; playwright Lee Nowell on flute, kazoo and vocals, genuine musician Chelsea Szegidewiczon percussion, guitar and vocals, and yoga instructor Diana Delatour, for whom the band is named, on bass and all cow sounds.

Their first album, RABBIT IN THE MORNING, appeared out of nowhere in 2024 and may be heard on most streaming platforms including YouTube and Spotify.

International musical superstar Elise Witt says they’re her favorite band, but maybe she’s just being polite.

In conclusion, it is nearly impossible to hear them and NOT have fun. Of some sort.
