Melissa Etheridge and Keb' Mo' to perform at Andover Capitol Federal Amphitheater®

Melissa Etheridge and Keb' Mo' will perform at the Andover Capitol Federal Amphitheater® on Saturday, September 24, starting at 7 p.m.

Melissa Etheridge stormed onto the American rock scene in 1988 with the release of her critically acclaimed self-titled debut album, which led to an appearance on the 1989 Grammy Awards show. For several years, her popularity grew around such memorable originals as "Bring Me Some Water," "No Souvenirs" and "Ain't It Heavy," for which she won a Grammy® in 1992.
Known for her confessional lyrics and raspy, smoky vocals, Etheridge has remained one of America's favorite female singer-songwriters for more than two decades. On September 17, 2021, Melissa released a new album called One Way Out. The 9-track album is a collection of songs Etheridge wrote in the late '80s and early '90s that never made the cut….until now! The time is finally right, and fans will finally get a deeper glimpse to who Melissa was then.
With five GRAMMYs, 14 Blues Foundation Awards and a groundbreaking career spanning nearly 50 years under his belt, Keb' Mo' stands as one of the most accomplished and respected artists working in contemporary roots music today. Born and raised in Compton, California, Keb' got his start working behind the scenes as a guitarist, songwriter, and arranger before breaking out internationally with the release of his1994 self-titled debut, which earned widespread acclaim for its genre-bending take on old school sounds. In the decades that followed, Keb' would go on to top the Billboard Blues Chart seven times; perform everywhere from Carnegie Hall to The White House.
Tickets are on sale Friday, May 20 starting at $30, available online at www.capfedamphitheater.com
