On Sunday October 7, Jan Preston’s My Life as a Piano arrives to the Potato Shed.

From the ubercool ambience of dark and dingy jazz dives to the sweaty raw energy of honky tonk houses around the world, Jan and her band play the grooves of boogie, ragtime and more, all the while revealing the unique world of Jan and her pianos.
