Lyle Lovett at the Uptown Theatre
JaM Cellars presents Lyle Lovett at the Uptown Theatre on Friday, March 15, and Saturday, March 16, at 8 p.m. each night. Singer, composer and actor Lyle Lovett has broadened the definition of American music in a career that spans 14 albums. Coupled with his gift for storytelling, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country, swing, jazz, folk, gospel and blues in a convention-defying manner. Whether touring as a auo or with his acoustic group or his large band, Lovett’s live performances show not only the breadth of this Texas legend’s deep talents but also the diversity of his influences. Since his self-titled debut in 1986, Lyle Lovett has evolved into one of music’s most vibrant performers. Among his many accolades, besides the four Grammy Awards, he was given the Americana Music Association’s inaugural Trailblazer Award and was named Texas State Musician.
