The Eric Pettit Trio, a group that started in Burlington, will take the stage at the Mill, 120 E. Burlington St., at 8 p.m. Friday.

The trio — Eric Pettit, Tim Buhmeyer, and Greg Floyd — plays a blend of Western and folk music. The group’s first album, We Are in Rome, was produced in Iowa City; it sets up a debate on current and important issues in society.

The three will collaborate with Sean Costanza, another Iowa native, at their performance Friday. Costanza has a wide range, from a somber sound on his song “Broken Old River Town,” to a country style similar to Pettit’s on “Man By Design.”

The performance is an opportunity to see local artists in action, with a blend of country and Western styles. Admission for the show is $6.
