Live Broadcast – MKE Unplugged: Woody Mann

WMSE is thrilled to take part in the MKE Unplugged series by hosting a live broadcast from the Helene Zelazo Center for the arts. This weeks performance is
by legendary guitarist Woody Mann.

Among guitarists and critics, Woody Mann is considered a modern master. While the blues are his touchstone, he seems to draw inspiration from every direction, blending a myriad of influences with ease and grace. Pioneering guitar legend John Fahey said it well: “You can hear classical, jazz and blues approaches somehow converging into a single sparkling sound – a sound completely his own. Woody takes a fresh approach to his blues re-creations and his own compositions defy category. If there was a category simply called ‘great music’ Woody’s music would belong there.

“Don’t miss a chance to see him; you are unlikely to hear anything – or anyone better in the fields that Mann has chosen to master.”- The London Times

Concert begins at 7:30 p.m. in Zelazo 250.
