Raised on the Bakersfield honky tonk of Buck Owens and traditional country like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams, Dwight Yoakam has created more than a dozen studio albums of his own self-described hillbilly music over nearly four decades. On his 2012 collection, “3 Pears,” the Kentucky-born performer reached out to Kid Rock and Ashley Monroe of Pistol Annies for co-writing help on a couple songs, while Beck co-produced the successful set.
Ticket buyers know a slew of Yoakam singles when they head to his concerts — from the chart-topping “Guitars Cadillacs” from the similarly-titled 1986 debut and “I Sang Dixie” off of 1988’s “Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room” to 1993’s “A Thousand Miles from Nowhere.” And when he’s not on the tour bus canvassing the nation, the singer/songwriter may be on a movie set. His acting credits include critically acclaimed roles as an abusive boyfriend in “Sling Blade” and a psychopath killer in “Panic Room.”
This show rocked for 90 straight minutes. Would go again in heartbeat! Awesome show.
It was very smooth buying tickets and checking on at the concert!
What a treasure we have in Dwight Yoakam. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Mr Yoakams voice was perfection and his stage presence was spot on.
Awesome show, one of a kind performance influenced by the Municipal Auditorium venue that spawned the careers of so many legendary artists in country music and rock and roll! Played all his old hits and one of them even twice. Way better than I was expecting actually, I would recommend seeing Dwight at every opportunity!
Show was great, was quite late starting but otherwise excellent!
Great band, good music for over 2 hours. First time at the Shreveport, municipal auditorium, good venue for concerts would definitely go again.
We loved the show - very nice and Historic venue .
It was an awesome concert! Dwight's still got it from his signature "dance moves"to his guitar playing to his distinct "old school country music"sounds! His band was excellent, especially the multi-talented guitar / mandolin player on stage! We appreciated Dwight paying homage to the Louisiana Hayride and the Shreveport venue. His comments were very sincere and the Hayride heritage is something we in Louisiana are very proud of. Great concert at a great venue!
He was late and apologized for that! He made up for that with a longer and very exciting concert! This is one of the best we have been to in years!!
I’m not a big country guy, but I dubbed this year as the year of concerts…one every month. I knew that Dwight has been around for a long time so I figured he would put on a great show for his genre. WHAT A GREAT SHOW IT WAS!! All of these guys were on top of their game and were quite impressive. I’m VERY GLAD that I went to go see the show. THANKS for the show Dwight!!
