David Jacobs-Strain at Renaissance Cafe
Join us as nationally acclaimed David Jacobs-Strain performs "Indie Rock Infused Delta Blues" at Renaissance! 401 East Front Street, Port Angeles on August 8th from 7-9 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Wine, beer, coffee, tea, and refreshments will be available for sale.
Jacobs-Strain began playing on street corners and at farmers markets as a teenager, and bought his first steel guitar with the quarters he saved up. Before he dropped out of Stanford to play full time, he had already appeared at festivals across the country, often billed as a blues prodigy, but he had to fight to avoid being a novelty act: "I wanted to tell new stories, it just wasn't enough to relive the feelings in other people's music." -from his biography page
"David Jacobs-Strain sings and plays slide-driven country blues with a passion and authority that few artists of any age can muster. But besides firing off compelling covers of traditional tunes... his original songs have served to update and evolve the idiom, winning widespread respect from the contemporary blues community." -Guitar Player Magazine
All ticket proceeds will benefit First Step Family Support Center to promote the healthy development of children and families in Clallam County.
