About This Event

With sand in his blood and orange blossom honey in his soul, Doug Spears is a masterful storyteller whose Americana/folk sound recalls the warmth of Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver, and James Taylor. A fifth-generation Floridian, Doug began playing guitar at age 12 and has spent more than 30 years sharing songs rooted in memory, family, and the Florida landscape.

His internationally released album Welcome Home reached #3 on the International Folk DJ Radio Charts and earned Grammy ballot recognition. Doug’s live performances blend story and song into an engaging, intimate experience filled with eloquent harmonies and seasoned musicianship.

This event is proudly sponsored by Infinity Natural Resources. $5 for WVBG Members, $10 General Admission, Children 6 and under are free. Reserve your tickets today at wvbg.org.
