A superb entertainer, master guitarist, with his signature soulful voice, David Wilcox has inhabited the Canadian musical landscape for decades with his blend of rock, blues, country, ragtime and other roots styles and will be treating the Musicfest stage to his unique brand of Canadiana.
Over his career he has amassed multiple gold and platinum albums and countless fans of several generations. His music has been skated to by Olympic champions Salé and Pelletier, his songs have appeared in movies like Cocktail with Tom Cruise. Whether it’s a backyard barbeque, a TV theme (Street Legal), Carnegie Hall, the Montreux Jazz Festival with John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin, his sound is ubiquitous and wholly Canadian. Until you see him live, you don’t know what you are missing. Lucky for us, he will be performing at Del Crary Park August 17th to close out the 2024 concert series.
David Wilcox last performed on the Fred Anderson Stage at Peterborough Musicfest in 1999, marking an artist’s longest absence from the Musicfest stage to date.
