He performs his own songs as well as tunes from Pete Seeger, Malvina Reynolds, Burl Ives, Raffi, Cathy Fink, and John McCutcheon. John's infectious good humor is guaranteed to get you singing, dancing, and laughing along with him.

**The Roullard Family with Jan Grigsby and Nina Ryne
(Hot Licks Stage, Saturday 3:00)
John Roullard and Amber Roullard Mueller join their adult son Christopher in a celebration of folk music. Christopher's guitar and Amber's bass will rally around John as he shares some of his favorite songs from the American experience. Amber will also play some spirited fiddle tunes with her husband, Jim Mueller.
When not playing music, Amber is a home health physical therapist. John and Christopher are local elementary school teachers, and Jim is a math professor at Cal Poly. Jan Grigsby and Nina Ryne will blend their harmonious voices with guitar and various other instruments to present a lively and interactive performance of songs and stories.
Nina performs at schools and libraries, and has a CD titled "It's Our World!", while Jan keeps busy with a classroom of 31 kindergarten students, sharing his passion and talents for music daily. Jan and Nina's latest CD, "Lost and Found" is available on CDBaby.com.
