Jesse Cook: Live in Concert
The Tarkington // Sunday, Oct 26, 7pm ET
In a career spanning three decades, Canadian guitarist-composer Jesse Cook’s honors have included Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s coveted Player’s Choice Silver Award and 11 Juno Award nominations with one win. Introduced to flamenco music as a child, he went on to study at Canada’s Royal Conservatory, Toronto’s York University and Berklee College in Boston. His compositional style – mixing flamenco with everything from classical and jazz to Zydeco, blues and Brazilian samba – has spawned an international following, with his songs used as soundtracks for newscasts and Olympics routines. He has released over a dozen albums and five PBS television specials.
