Monday, May 30, 2022 at 8:00 pm
$49, $69, $179 and $229
Boz Scaggs’ new album, Out of the Blues, lends symmetry to his five-decade musical career that was first sparked by the blues. Of his life’s work, he reflects, “I feel like I’ve found my voice through all these years, and I’ve gotten closer to where I want to be with my approach.”
Scaggs grew up in Oklahoma and Texas, where he spent his teenage years immersed in the blues, R&B, and early rock ‘n’ roll. He joined the Steve Miller Band just before launching his solo career with 1968’s seminal Boz Scaggs LP. He continued to mine a personalized mix of rock, blues and R&B influences, along with a signature style of ballads on such influential ’70s albums as Moments, Boz Scaggs & Band, and 1976’s Silk Degrees, which became a commercial breakthrough, reaching number two and remaining on the album charts for 115 weeks. After an 8-year hiatus, Scaggs released a stream of albums, including the Grammy®-nominated Come on Home, a pair of albums of jazz standards, But Beautiful and Speak Low, the Southern-flavored Memphis, and the rhythm & bluesy A Fool to Care.
