–Greg Brown brings his deep voice, rich stories, and 2018 Tour dates to The Fremont Theater in San Luis Obispo, on Friday, March 2 at 7 p.m. Tickets on sale now via Eventbrite.com or locally at Boo Boo Records. The show is all ages.
Greg Brown was born in the Hacklebarney section of southeastern Iowa and raised by a family that made words and music a way of life. His seasoned songwriting, storytelling, and music are deeply rooted in that place. He moves audiences with warmth, humor, a thundering voice and his unpretentious musical vision.
The founder of exemplary indie folk label Red House Records (with more than 200 titles to date), he’s also been a tireless champion for numerous humanitarian causes. At the personal request of Jeff Bridges, Brown also contributed two songs (including “Brand New Angel”) which were recorded by Bridges for his Oscar-winning role as rugged, faded country star ‘Bad Blake’ in the Oscar-nominated “Crazy Heart.” Greg is also the former musical director for Garrison Keillor’s A Prairie Home Companion radio program.
