Americana singer, guitarist, and songwriter Charley Crockett will perform at the historic Jefferson Theatre on Thursday, Sept. 30. This event was rescheduled from March 27, 2020. All tickets for the original date will be honored for this show.

Crockett's unique approach to American roots music - mix of Texas blues, classic country and Cajun soul - has earned him an audience on both sides of the Atlantic. Long before he toured the country in a bus once owned by Willie Nelson, though, he cut his teeth as a street performer, busking on the corners of New Orleans and the subway cars of New York City. It was a hands-on musical education. Surrounded by the chaotic noise of city life, Crockett learned how to project. He learned how to hold a crowd's attention. Most importantly, he learned a long list of classic songs from the jug bands, brass players and fellow songwriters with whom he shared the street. Filled with vivid storytelling, raw honesty and rich southern heritage, those classic tunes would eventually inspire his own original music.  

Tickets start at $22.50 and can be purchased online at ticketmaster.com.
