Steve James in concertSteve James in concert

Saint Patrick’s Solas Leigh is concert series welcomes Steve James in concert.  A musician and storyteller, Steve James is a great instrumentalist, a prolific composer, and a dynamic stage presence. He is one of the few contemporary songwriters to manage the neat trick of working within older traditions while consistently producing lyrics that sound fresh and smart rather than cute or nostalgic. His singing conveys both the depth and the humor of his material, and his live shows have a crackling energy that is light years away from the museum-style presentation of many acoustic blues revivalists.  Old-timey yet in the moment, traditional yet innovative, Steve James’ guitar playing and songs will take you to places long gone as well as destinations you’ve never been to.  A wine and cheese reception is included during intermission.  All proceeds benefit community outreach.  For more details, visit www.saint-patricks.org or contact concerts@saint-patricks.org or (704) 663-5659.
