Gypsy Jayne at the Buddy Holly Center’s Summer Showcase 2022

Gypsy Jayne will be at the Buddy Holly Center’s Summer Showcase Concert Series on Thursday, August 11, 2022.

Gypsy Jayne is an energizing shot of pure passion. Earthy eclecticism (think old-school country, jazz, gospel, and rock, and you’re just beginning to scratch the surface) and sheer, contagious joy make every show an unforgettable experience. The unique band from Lubbock, Texas captivates audiences everywhere they play.

The group’s leader, Gypsy Jayne, is a soulful singer somewhat reminiscent of artists such as Janis Joplin, Susan Tedeschi, Grace Slick, and many more. Her intense rhythmic guitar style was honed playing folk in Colorado, jazz standards in Texas, and blues in the deep south of Alabama. Along the way, she developed an honest and humorous writing style that covers everything from personal loss and social injustice to love and life as a pirate. With her formidably talented bandmates, Gypsy Jayne brings folks together in a glorious celebration of music, art and life.

Concerts are every Thursday evening from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Meadows Courtyard through August 18. Mi Mesa will be on site during Showcase hours. Grab a snack or dinner and enjoy a performance by Gypsy Jayne! Admission is FREE! Seating for this event is available on a first come, first serve basis. No reservations will be accommodated for this event. Outside food, beverages, chairs, picnic blankets, and like items will NOT be permitted inside the gates. NO pets allowed inside the Courtyard.
