Hoot ‘n Annie welcome the newest members of the band-Johnny Xylo and Charlie Re!
The twins (born March 27th 2009) have not yet picked their very own weird and wacky instruments. Right now they are content to simply contribute vocals—mostly to our practice sessions! We look forward to including them on stage in the very near future. Check out their You Tube page “KazooTeddy” for a closer look!
Who are Hoot ‘n Annie?
Hoot 'n Annie have delighted audiences around the world with their mix of traditional American music, folk songs and humor. They are multi-instrumentalists and vocalists, and between them play the banjo, fiddle, accordion, clarinet, ukulele, cello, drums, washboard, nose flute, slide-whistle, washtub bass, jaw harp, and musical saw. Most times they play a few instruments at once. With various parts of their bodies. While telling jokes. Or doing magic tricks. Or getting you up dancing-- til you need to be hosed down.
They have appeared in various guises on PBS-TV, on National Public Radio, at the renowned Augusta Heritage Festival, and other famous festivals from Canada to Poland, and in prestigious venues like the New Jersey Performing Art Center, the Walter Reade Theater at Lincoln Center, NYC, and at museums, libraries, community centers and schools in over a dozen states from coast to coast.
