Our good friend & neighbor Lightnin’ Wells stops by RAF for another powerhouse concert of early Americana: blues, gospel, country, folk, hokum–most anything’s liable to show up on his set list so long as it’s pre-World War II. 

As always with a Lightnin’ show, expect a full evening’s entertainment as he accompanies himself on resonator & acoustic guitars, banjo, ukuleles, harmonicas, mandolin, and tiple.
