11/5/22 Harmonious Wail Returns to Thrasher

5 November 2022 News


Green Lake, Wis. – Thrasher Opera House veterans Harmonious Wail will return to play on Friday, November 18 at 7:30 p.m. The members of Harmonious Wail are purveyors of Americana-infused Gypsy Jazz, who continue to take their listeners on a ride via the music of the Hot Club sounds of Parisian cafes, to the deepest blues of the Memphis Delta, to the heartfelt folk scenes across every-town-America. This harmonious clique is sublime entertainers, great educators, and lifters of spirits.

Harmonious Wail is a trio of multi-award-winning musicians. Sims Delaney-Potthoff, a mandolin virtuoso, and vocalist, Maggie Delaney-Potthoff, vocalist extraordinaire, whose percussive instrument of choice is a cardboard box (but who can also rock almost any household object), and Jeffo Weiss, a master bassist who dazzles and mesmerizes on both upright and electric 5-string bass.

As stewards of the Gypsy Jazz genre, they have established the Midwest Gypsy Swing Fest, held twice a year in Madison, Wisconsin.  They also offer to take the fest on the road as a special concert package. They have mastered a plan on how to bring amazing Gypsy Jazz All-Stars from around the world and place them in front of concert audiences throughout the United States.

The 2022 Fall Season at Thrasher Opera House is sponsored by Better Homes and Garden Real Estate Special Properties.  Steve’s Quality Painting and Condon Total Comfort sponsor the Harmonious Wail show.  This event is supported in part by a grant from the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts. 

Tickets for Harmonious Wail’s performance on November 18 at 7:30 p.m. are $24 and available at www.thrasheroperahouse.com or by calling 920.294.4279
