Curtis Salgado Coming to the Triple Door on September 2nd and 3rd

Award-winning soul, blues and R&B vocalist/harmonicist/songwriter Curtis Salgado, touring in support of his new record, The Beautiful Lowdown, will give two performances at The Triple Door in Seattle on Friday, September 2nd and Saturday, September 3rd, 2016. The Beautiful Lowdown, Salgado’s ninth record total, is the singer’s most fearless and adventurous release to date. For the first time in his career, he wrote or co-wrote virtually the entire album himself. He co-produced it along with Marlon McClain and Tony Braunagel and contributed to the horn arrangements and background vocal parts. 

With an impressive, storied career spanning forty years, Salgado is a one-of-a-kind talent whose music is as compelling as his story. From co-fronting The Robert Cray Band to leading his own band (and recording nine solo  albums) to helping transform John Belushi into “Joliet” Jake Blues to touring the country with Steve Miller and Santana, he is a true musical giant. NPR calls him “a blues icon” with a “huge voice.” On The Beautiful Lowdown, the deeply-rooted singer effortlessly blends classic soul sounds and funk grooves with up-to-the-minute lyrics. His full-force vocals-intense and uninhibited-bring an urgency and edge to his timeless original songs. Blues Revue, describing Salgado’s performance style, declares, “He starts at excellent before segueing into goose bumps, ecstasy, and finally nirvana.”

Tickets to the show are priced between $25 and $35, and can be purchased at tickets.thetripledoor.net/ordertickets.asp?p=2176 or tickets.thetripledoor.net/ordertickets.asp?p=2177 for September 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
