Kenny Wayne Shepherd makes his way to the Grand Opera House in Macon, GA on Friday, June 9 with Ally Venable opening the show. In a 20-year recording career that began when he was just 16, Shepherd has established himself as an immensely popular recording artist, a consistently in-demand live act and an influential force in a worldwide resurgence of interest in the blues. The Louisiana born axeman and songsmith has sold millions of albums while throwing singles into the Top 10, shining a light on the rich blues of the past and forging ahead with his own modern twist on a classic sound he has embodied since his teens.
Opening support will be Texas blues/rock guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter Ally Venable. Ally’s sound is fully contemporary, rooted in the bedrock of American music, and built on the kind of talent that only presents itself every few generations. Her guitar work is wiry and ferocious and her vocals sparkle and strut. At just 23 years old, she is one of today’s top blues artists by any measure and her career is only picking up speed.
