* Jeff Jarrett: an excellent singer and guitarist performing mostly classic rock and folk songs.
* The Mudds: a husband and wife duo who have recently started performing rock with several other talented musicians. I understand that they also perform as a jazz duo, which is something that I look forward to hearing.
* Johnny Wild and the Delights: while I'm not usually a big fan of the music from the 50's, they do such a great job of selecting material, performing it so well, while putting on an excellent and engaging performance that I really enjoy their shows.
* Gilly and the Girl: a really excellent singer and guitarist performing rock, folk, oldies, and most everything else, including a few songs that I hadn't heard before and really enjoyed.
That's the start of my list, but I'm always on the outlook for any of the other great performers who frequently play here in The Villages.

My faves so far are the Hooligans, Spazmatics, Johnny Wild, Anita Drink and Uncle Bob’s Rock Shop, with the first three being the most outstanding.
By the way, Stephen, Johnny Wild does lots of songs from the ‘60s as well as the ‘50s and I agree they do an excellent job on all of them.
P.S. Paisley Craze are good too, but not "paisley" enough, imo. Kinda false advertising. I was expecting a psych/garage band. They might do Incense and Peppermints but that's about it.
