🎸"finest rock songwriter after Dylan and the best electric guitarist since Hendrix" (LA Times)
🎭Relatively small theater means everyone gets a good seat
🍺Healthy concession options and $8 beers

Richard Thompson's fingers dance across the fretboard with the kind of wizardry that earned him comparisons to Hendrix. The British folk-rock legend brings decades of Grammy-nominated songwriting to this intimate Berkeley stage for a night of masterful guitar work and timeless melodies.
