Festa: Luther Dickinson and the Collaborators at the Dakota

Luther Dickinson and the Collaborators feat. Sharde Thomas and Amy LaVere at 7pm tickets: http://bit.ly/2nirLrr

Luther Dickinson brings his newest, mostly acoustic project Blues and Ballads through Minneapolis. The project features Dickinson’s voice and guitar, with support from Amy LaVere on bass and Sharde Thomas on drums, fife and vocals. Their influences are clear, from iconic fife man Otha Turner (Sharde Thomas is Turner’s granddaughter), Luther’s own piano-playing grandmother, his dad, and so many of his North Mississippi musician friends resound. This unique blending of sounds can only be described as ‘Acoustic Folk-Rock-Country Blues’. Make no mistake; this is the real stuff.
