David Bromberg

Give David Bromberg an hour and 50 minutes, and he’ll play for you the blues, country and western, bluegrass, rock ‘n’ roll and gospel music. Stay long enough, and he’ll even toss in an old English drinking song for fun.

The man was truly born to be a performer, and he had the crowd enthralled in his quirky tales of woe from start to finish.
