GUY DAVIS

General Admission  $15

Whether appearing on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, in front of  
15,000 people at the famed Winnipeg Folk Festival or in the intimate  
gathering of the Fredonia Opera House, Guy Davis is dedicated to  
reviving the art of acoustic blues. "One of a handful of young  
singers keeping the tradition vital," says the San Francisco  
Chronicle, Davis' music "blows through your brain like a Mississippi  
dust devil!" He is all blues, all the time.
