Despite his penchant for pearl snaps and western hats, Charley Crockett isn’t an artist to be pigeon-holed. Part neo-country-western, part bluesman, Crockett is all storyteller. Sad, uplifting, hard, and sweet, complex and delicate all at once, his songs are like life itself, just like the songs’ creator: like nothing you’ve heard or seen before, a genuine Texas original. He sings them in his one-of-a-kind voice: distinctive, plaintive vocals that crack unapologetically with emotion, lines phrased around the beat like a jazz singer, expounding on personal relationships and the world beyond. Young Texas songwriter Vincent Neil Emerson will open the show.

“Crockett’s sound is a vibrant kaleidoscope that constantly morphs, shifts, and melds an assortment of country soul, cajun folk, stirring blues, effortless R&B, and a multitude of other American roots music as fresh as it is familiar . . . rich and boundless and steeped in tradition.” – Texas Monthly
