Jess Klein and Jonathan Byrd sing at Fairfield Studios on Sat, Jan 12, 7 pm

Jess Klein and Jonathan Byrd will pick and harmonize at Fairfield Studios on Sat, Jan 12, at 7 pm.

Might this show be somewhat of a departure for the House Concert Series? Klein, based in Brooklyn, cites her influences as Willie Dixon, Marvin Gaye and Neil Young. Byrd, proud to be from Carrboro, NC, seems a lot folkier than Klein. But his most recent album, "This is the New That," is rock 'n roll, he says. On their sound samples Klein sounds brooding and bluesy. Byrd sounds kinetic and in-your-face.

There may be sparks in the studio Sat night on Fairfield as these two performers try to bridge the stage.

It's early: 7 pm
