Friday Oct 18th 2024 we welcome bluesman Guy Davis on tour from the USA

His background in theatre is pronounced through the lyrical storytelling of songs "God's Gonna Make Things Over" about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, "Welcome to My World", and "Got Your Letter In My Pocket". His storytelling is sometimes painful, deep, and real, an earthy contrast to modern-day commercial music, meant to create thought, underlined by gentle tones from his guitar or banjo finger picking.

Guy Davis is a two-time, back-to-back Grammy nominee for Best Traditional Blues.
He is a musician, actor, author, and songwriter. Guy uses a blend of Roots, Blues, Folk, Rock,
Spoken Word, and World Music to comment on, and address, the frustrations of social injustice, touching on historical events, and common life struggles
