An acoustic evening with DWAYNE HAGGINS
\n
\n\n4-13-2023 \;(Ballroom)
\n
\nDwayne Haggins \;has been described as &ldquo\;the love child of Sam Cooke and Mississippi John Hurt.&rdquo\; &ldquo\;The John Legend of rockabilly.&rdquo\; And recently\, &ldquo\;the &lsquo\;what-took-you-so-long?&rsquo\; fusion of Elvis and Marvin Gaye.&rdquo\; But he is Dwayne Haggins\, and his voice is his own. For Dwayne\, every performance is a mission of discovery &ndash\; of self and of song. Whether on the stage of a metropolitan concert hall or the makeshift bandstand of a neighborhood dive\, you will find him exploring uncharted musical territories\, listening for new ways to stir his influences into this night&rsquo\;s expression of his unique sound &ndash\; strangely familiar\, naturally mysterious\, unmistakably his own.
\n
\nThe exponential growth of his devoted audience likely signals that a move to larger venues is inevitable\, and perhaps imminent. Which is no doubt one reason why Dwayne'\;s recent shows in local venues have taken on a new intensity\, a sense of immense potential chafing at the limits of its current constraints. These days\, each performance feels like a special occasion\, a chance perhaps to experience the end of the beginning\, the last page of prologue to a brand new story that already has the makings of a modern classic.
