July 27: Damon Fowler (Blues) | Visit Website
Tampa’s Damon Fowler is a masterful singer, guitar player and songwriter. A hard-driving troubadour, his music is steeped with soul and representative of the many styles that make up the roots of American music. He has been featured in Butch Truck’s Freight Train band and his side gig as guitarist in the Dickey Betts Band. Critics have compared Fowler’s guitar work to Johnny Winter and Jeff Beck, while his slide guitar is reminiscent of the late Duane Allman. Fowler can play fiery guitar runs with the best of them, and his lyrical work on lap steel and dobro make him a standout performer among the legions of guitar heroes.
