Delta blues and swampy rock-n-roll with David Jacobs-Strain

Posted

HAWLEY, PA — Harmony Presents will welcome David Jacobs-Strain, a slide guitar player and storyteller, on Saturday, November 15 at 8 p.m. in the Boiler Room in the Hawley Silk Mill. He will be accompanied by harmonica player Bob Beach.

Jacobs-Strain is something of a bridge between today’s indie folk troubadours and the delta guitar slingers of the 1930s, playing with precision and emotional abandon. He’s a six-foot-two Jewish blues singer from Oregon, a Stanford drop-out in a trucker hat, and a Left Coast poet; one part Leo Kottke, one part Ken Kesey, and one part Robert Johnson. He has toured with Lucinda Williams, Etta James, Bob Weir and Boz Scaggs.
