The duo of Don Julin and Billy Strings will play a Ten Pound Fiddle concert in East Lansing Friday night. Current State's Katie Cook talks with Julin for a preview of the show.

A bluegrass duo from Traverse City will be performing one of their last concerts tomorrow night at the Hannah Community Center in Lansing.  Don Julin plays the mandolin with guitar player Billy Strings. They have been playing and touring together quite a lot for the past two years.

Current State producer Katie Cook spoke with Julin about their music, which has been described by John Sinkevics of Local Spins in West Michigan as “sizzling bluegrass with sweat-drenched rock and roll vigor.”
