David Jacobs-Strain

David Jacobs-Strain is a virtuosic slide guitar player and a storyteller with a passionate one man show that is both humorous and deeply lyrical. A bridge between today's indie folk troubadours and the delta guitar slingers of the 1930′s, David plays with precision and sings with emotional abandon.

Is it Delta Blues? Gangsta Grass? Geekabilly? Secular Humanist Gospel? It's a sound big enough to land David at the Newport Folk Festival —as a teenager— and later at MerleFest, the Strawberry Music Festival, the Montreal International Jazz Fest, and on tour with artists as diverse as Lucinda Williams, Etta James, Bob Weir, and Boz Scaggs (for three summer tours).
