Jim Hurst, two-time IBMA Guitar Player of the Year and former member of the Claire Lynch Band, comes to Madison November 13 for a guitar workshop and house concert at the home of Jim and Nancy Nikora.

Jim’s skill as a vocal and guitar instructor makes him highly sought-after. He teaches at guitar workshops, clinics, and music camps around the country.

“Jim is one of the most under-rated musicians on today’s acoustic scene. He always mines a deep groove and heats things up to a rolling boil. Combining strong country and bluegrass roots, subtle invention, and a big beautiful sound. Jim’s music is consistently fresh and friendly.” ~ Tim O’Brien
