Seated show

$25ADV / $30DOS

The man whom American Impresario Bill Graham, the most iconic concert promoter in the history of live music, called “The best kept secret in the music business”; who taught Joni Mitchell her first guitar techniques; taught George Harrison of the Beatles his first lessons on Sitar; the man who wrote the music to Donovan’s “Season Of The Witch”; and who has had many of the finest musicians in the world, including Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood, play on his albums. Shawn Phillips has produced 28 albums with some 10 million records sold and is known around the world for his refusal to bow down to commercialism in the music industry. He has done what many singer/songwriters don’t do, which is continuing to evolve his creative skills in his concerts. When he comes into a venue, he brings not only the sounds of an entire symphony orchestra, but also a full rock band in real time, and plays the songs that so many love as close as possible to what was recorded on the albums. He creates as much sound as Pink Floyd or U2 in concert. All in real time! All solo! He has a powerful new show he is debuting on his 2025 tour. This is a show you do not want to miss.
