What's a Mutual Kumquat? I'm glad you asked:

Seth Hendricks, Chris Good, Drue Gray, Ben Gray and Jacob Jolliff make up Mutual Kumquat, a talented group of 3 singer-songwriters, a percussionist, and a mandolin virtuoso. Performing as a trio, 4-piece or full quintet, Mutual Kumquat has brought it's 'good times revolution music' to audiences across the United States, engaging audiences with positive, clever, and poignant lyrics, strong rhythms, rich harmonies, stick-in-your-head melodies - a unique flavor of pop music influenced by bluegrass, funk, jazz, soul, folk, reggae and afrobeat.

You can find out more about this tremendously musical and thought-provoking group on their Facebook fan page or their website.

On October 22nd at 7pm Mutual Kumquat will preform a benefit concert, hosted by the Richmond Church of the Brethren, in support of Open Arms Ministries. After the concert there will be free desserts and time for hanging out with the band and getting to know other music-, peace-, and justice-lovers. Donations for Open Arms will be collected throughout the evening and the band will be selling their CDs, t-shirts, and other great gear.
