"Jess Klein is a badass." - Mary Gauthier

Jess Klein came to this world to pull firebrand power and childlike joy from our darkest shadows. Her acoustic-driven, hook-laden story songs revel in the polychrome of human experience - joy, rage, sensuality and resilience. The New York Times calls her “A songwriter with a voice of unblinking tenacity.” 

Jess has toured the globe performing in pin-drop listening rooms, cozy theaters and at raucous festivals in front of tens of thousands of fans.  She has toured nationally and internationally supporting Arlo Guthrie, Josh Ritter, Damien Dempsey, John Fullbright and Jonathan Byrd and has opened for such legends as Ani DiFranco, Steve Earle and Alejandro Escovedo.  

Jess's live shows are known for their intimate and soulful atmosphere. Whether solo with just her guitar or backed by a band, Jess performs with a raw, emotional intensity.  Her emotive vocals, and poignant storytelling invite her fans on a journey through themes of love, loss, and resilience.

Opening for Jess Klein is our own Bill Burkert. Bill was born in Muskegon, Michigan, then moved to Tampa at age 11. Not too long after he got a guitar and the Alan Lomax book of 317 folk songs. A few years later his friend Joe showed him how to play something called “Travis” style. Later on Merle Travis DENIED having anything to do with how Bill plays guitar! 

Oh, well…Some years later Bill moved to Fort Myers, joined the ACMA, and started writing and singing songs. Bill won the Bob Dylan look alike contest at our recent Bob Night! And was the stand out that night for playing the least known Dylan songs. Thoughtful choices!

Tickets for the show are available at the door. Door donations:
ACMA Members/$15
General Admission/$20

The Listening Room doors open at 6:30 pm and the concert begins at 7:00 pm
