Braithwaite & Whitesell

Coyote's Coffee Den, Highway 115, Penrose, CO

Two of the Pikes Peak Region's most well known artists have joined forces! KJ Braithwaite has been a musician since he first picked up his brother's guitar and father's harmonica at age 10, and, as KJ says, "the Beatles opened up my world". Originally from Salt Lake City, KJ became a fixture on the Colorado music scene playing the ski resorts for many years. After moving to Colorado Springs KJ has been known for his musical associations with Joe Uveges and Susan Rissman, the Kings of Clubs and Andy Clifton, as well as a solo artist.  George Whitesell grew up in the Hudson River Valley of New York where he started playing in bands at the age of 15. His musical popularity in Colorado Springs started growing since moving here in the 1970's. In 1983 his recording of "Pray For Me, I Drive Academy" became a regional hit. George is most well-known as a solo artist and for the bands, Eclectic Rhythm & Blues, Metro Blues and George Whitesell & His All Stars featuring Jill Watkins. Braithwaite & Whitesell have a combined experience professionally playing music of over 100 years! A typical Braithwaite & Whitesell performance combines an eclectic blend of popular songs featuring tight vocal harmony with distinctive original material and expert musicianship.
