Performers Jackie and Gary will present their concert, Singing the Good Old Songs Again, at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Alpena County Library, with classic and original folk songs, interspersed with lighthearted humor and personal stories.

Jackie Miller Davidson, formerly of the New Christie Minstrels, was a regular on “The Andy Williams Show,” sang with many well-known entertainers such as Sammy Davis Jr., Tennessee Ernie Ford, Kate Smith, Carol Channing, and others. With the Minstrels, she performed at the White House, Carnegie Hall, The Hollywood Bowl, and accompanied Al Hirt on her banjo at the Greek Theatre in Hollywood, Calif. In the spring of 2010 she joined Gary Brandt to perform as “Jackie and Gary” with their show, Singing the Good Old Songs Again.

Brandt, a popular folklorist, singer, and songwriter, has composed songs and performances for such venues as TV 2 Detroit, National Historic Oregon Trail Interpretive Center, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Chrysler Omni Arts and his multi-media program “Land to the West.” He carries on the tradition of folk music with a 12-string guitar, a good song, a humorous story, and a voice that reflects the rich tradition of American Folk Music.
