The SteelCreek Duo
is an acoustic group comprised of singer/songwriter, Jeni Hackett on vocals and guitar and Ken Duncan on bass. The two musicians bring a different influence to the band and the combined musical backgrounds add a rich fullness to the sound of SteelCreek.  These two musicians originally came together to perform for the established, country cover band: SteelCreek, in which they are still a part of, but have also branched out to play acoustically as the Duo. Their song list includes popular music from the 60’s all the way to current tunes in all genres of music, including, but not limited to pop, country, and rock. For more information, check out their website.
