Steve Poltz doesn’t just play shows — he creates unforgettable experiences. A cult hero of the folk and Americana scenes, Poltz is known for turning every performance into a spontaneous, hilarious, and heart warming ride. From jaw-dropping guitar chops to improvised songs made up on the spot, no two shows are ever the same — and that’s exactly how he likes it.
Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, raised in Southern California, and now based in Nashville, Steve has toured the world relentlessly (including over 20 trips to Australia) and built a reputation as a live act that simply must be witnessed. He’s been praised by Rolling Stone, Billboard, and the Associated Press, and shared stages and songs with the likes of Jewel, Billy Strings, and Tommy Emmanuel.
Poltz is part musical genius, part court jester, and part philosopher. One moment you’ll be wiping away tears from a tender ballad, the next you’ll be doubled over laughing at a story so outrageous it has to be true. At MEMO, expect an intimate, up-close experience where anything can happen — and probably will.
Come ready to laugh, cry, sing along, and leave feeling a little lighter than when you came in.
Steve Poltz is elusive like Bigfoot — but a whole lot easier to dance to.
