Jackson Hole, Wyo.-At a recent engagement in a small mountain town in North Carolina, a man that I had just met asked, “You ever heard of Anne and Pete Sibley? I saw them at Merlefest and now I listen to them on my iPod when I work out!”

 That goes to show you that The Sibleys are imprinting their warm and fuzzy folk-grass stamp in every little nook of America. Following a stint through the Pacific Northwest in October, the duo ventured East for a short tour through their Connecticut homeland as well as Virginia.

Their annual two-night run at Dornan’s is this week, at 8 p.m. next Tuesday and Wednesday. Tickets are $15 and available at Valley Bookstore and Dornan’s. Dinner will be available pre-show, 5:30 to 7 p.m.

The Q Roadhouse is becoming a lively after-dinner destination on the West Bank. Thursdays now feature folk trio Farris Miller Smith—three vocalists (Tim, Candice, Justin), two acoustic guitars and a mandolin is their foundation, topped with crafty originals alongside bar favorites.

The three Bootleg Flyer band mates are a big presence in the local music landscape.

“Candice has one of the best voices in the business and it will be a great pleasure to back her up,” Smith said.

FMS will perform 7 to 10 p.m., Thursdays, through the winter season at Q, where a two-for-one happy hour sweetens the deal, 5 to 6 p.m. and 8 to 9 p.m.

Don’t forget about the Annual Library Benefit, which will feature Pam Drews Phillips Quartet. Proceeds benefit The Teton County Library Foundation, established in 1982 to enhance library programs and services. The elegant benefit sells out its allotted 400 tickets each year, which are priced at $100 and include food and libations. Tickets are attainable at the library’s front desk or online at TCLib.org/libraryparty. There will also be a raffle to win a Kindle.

A free shuttle will be provided for ticket holders to the Four Seasons Resort from 6:45 to 11 p.m. A special $150 overnight rate at the Four Seasons is also offered. Call 732-5000 to reserve, or 733-2164 ext. 217 for more information.
