American artist Pokey LaFarge combines eclectic swing, early jazz and ragtime blues with a healthy dose of humour. He refers to his music as “Rhumba Country”. During his live shows, he manages to impress with his music and lyrics, as well as with his appearance.
In his 15+ year career, Pokey has been selling out venues worldwide. He also toured and recorded with Jack White. His music has also featured in TV shows like Boardwalk Empire, plus he played a role in the Netflix film “All the Time”.
Pokey LaFarge has performed in Nijmegen before, but this will be the first time in the idyllic Openluchttheater De Goffert: the perfect setting for his blend of American genres.
