A singer, composer and actor, Lovett has broadened the definition of American music in a career that spans 14 albums. Coupled with his gift for storytelling, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country, swing, jazz, folk, gospel and blues in a convention-defying manner that breaks down barriers.

Whether touring as a “Duo,” or with his “Acoustic Group,” or his “Large Band,” Lovett’s live performances show not only the breadth of his deep talents, but also the diversity of his influences, making him one of the most compelling and captivating musicians in popular music.
