Show Notes

David Jacobs-Strain is a fierce slide guitar player, and a song poet from Oregon.  He's known for both his virtuosity and spirit of emotional abandon.  His live show moves from humorous, subversive blues, to delicate balladry, and then swings back to swampy rock and roll.  David has appeared at festivals from British Columbia to Australia, including Merlefest, Telluride Blues Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and many more.  On the road, he's shared the stage with Lucinda Williams, Boz Scaggs (with whom he's done over 60 shows), Etta James, Taj Mahal, Tommy Emmanuel, Bob Weir, and many more.  He often tours with his friend Bob Beach, who's career has spanned over 45 years.  With his roots in blues, rock and folk, his innate feel for music transcends genre, and can be integrated into everything from hip hop to bluegrass to kids' cabaret and more.
