Last Night at The Raven Cafe: The Jon Rauhouse Sestet



Saturday nite: The Raven Cafe was especially proud to present an evening with The Jon Rauhouse Sestet. Jon is an unbelievable musician best known for his multi-instrumental backing of Neko Case and Calexico, his slide and pedal steel work setting a standard for musicians everywhere. Aside from that, he is an internationally recognized talent that sells out shows around the world.

Jon played here last May, and the response was overwhelming. Folks came from all over the state to see the show, and Jon sent us a note saying the Raven was definitely one of his favorite places he has ever played and you were one of the best audiences. This coming from an Austin City Limits regular.

PHX area bands Tierra Del Fuego and Farewell Review opened for him.


The full house included folks bringing in their kids to see the famed string man, out of towners come up to Everybody's Hometown for the gig and a Who's Who of the Prescott Cafe Crowd.


A wonderfully mellow night with the sounds of hawaiian guitar and harmony singing drifting back towards Studio A in The Raven Cafe.
