Join us for this silver-haired saxxy duo featuring Ouray County locals, Jim Pettengill and John Ast!

Jim and John met at a dinner at the Ouray, Colorado Elks Lodge several years ago and discovered that they both played saxophone. Since that time, both have played regularly with the Montrose community concert band and Saxophone Ensemble and the Lake City Stinger concert band. Jim also plays with Alive in the Woods, a local classic rock, blues and country band, and has played with jazz and country bands in New Mexico prior to retirement. John has also played with the Sun City Arizona concert band.

Jim and John also began arranging and playing duets to prerecorded background tracks, forming the Two Tenors! They play a wide variety of music from the ‘50s through the ‘90s. Although two tenor saxes feature in many of their songs, both players also have soprano, alto and baritone horns, so their performances feature a variety of saxes.
