Blues artist Curtis Salgado to perform

Posted

Award-winning vocalist, instrumentalist and songwriter Curtis Salgado, the man NPR calls “an icon” with “a huge voice,” will perform with his band at Cafe Eleven in St. Augustine on Sunday, Nov. 6. Salgado’s latest album, “Damage Control,” is being hailed as the best of his long career. Produced by Salgado, “Damage Control” is packed with soul-searching, street-smart, vividly detailed, instantly memorable songs.

With a career spanning more than three decades, Salgado, a seven-time winner of the Blues Music Award for Soul Blues Male Artist of The Year (most recently in 2022), is a one-of-a-kind talent whose music is as compelling as his story. From co-fronting The Robert Cray Band to leading his own band (and recording nine solo albums) to helping transform John Belushi into “Joliet” Jake Blues to touring the country with Steve Miller and Santana, he is a true musical giant.

The concert will begin at 8 p.m. Nov. 6 at Café Eleven, 501 A1A Beach Blvd., St. Augustine. Tickets are $30 in advance and $35 day of show. For tickets and more information, go to originalcafe11.com/curtis-salgado-nov-6-2022.
