November 19th, 2023 9pm Stage 1
Dwayne Haggins
He’s been described as “the love child of Sam Cooke and Doc Watson.” “The John Legend of rockabilly.” And recently, “a ‘what-took-you-so-long’ fusion of Elvis and Marvin Gaye.” But he is Dwayne Haggins, and his voice is his own. Whether on the stage of a metropolitan concert hall or the makeshift bandstand of a neighborhood dive, you will find him exploring uncharted musical territories, listening for new ways to stir his influences into this night’s expression of his unique sound – strangely familiar, naturally mysterious, unmistakably his own.
Notably, Haggins has shared the stage with acts such as Joe Bonamassa, Keb Mo, George Thorogood, Erik Gales, Suzanne Santo, and Fitz and the Tantrums.
