We've made it to the year-end,
and The Pearlz Band is taking a break until January!
We do have a busy schedule next month, but many of the performances are PRIVATE.
Our next PUBLIC show will be Saturday, January 25 at the Pittsford Community Library (24 State St, Pittsford) from 2:00 to 3:00 pm.
Our library performances are a unique way to hear the band. Library's have great acoustics, and in the quiet environment you can hear every little detail of the vocals and instruments!
NEW DATES WILL BE ADDED!
This is the time of year when new shows are often being added, so please visit our SHOWS page for our full schedule.
We will do our best to post any schedule changes on our Website and FaceBook page at least three hours before our scheduled Showtime.

NANCY AND THE LESLEY RIDDLE CONNECTION:
Lesley Riddle was one of the most influential figures in early country music.
He taught Mother Maybelle Carter (Johnny Cash's mother-in-law) his unique
picking style, and years later he met Nancy and taught HER!
In 2020, Nancy wrote an article about Lesley for The Birthplace Of Country Music Museum
in Bristol Tennessee/Virginia; the Museum now features an exhibit about Nancy & Lesley Riddle!
