 DWIGHT YOAKAM - Country Music Artists - Corporate Entertainment Booking
In all his recorded work and stage performances, Dwight Yoakam's music has been marked by an abiding affection for the purity of traditional country's precedent, but never has it been straitjacketed by a mindless fidelity that creates a vacuum in which a song withers and dies.
Dwight's understanding of country's past is one of the great virtues of his music; his will to go the past one better — to up the ante emotionally, to jump the energy level up several notches — is an equally important virtue in the Yoakam canon.
So he brought his music to an unlikely audience — he roots rock fans of Los Angeles, who were becoming conversant with a new breed of traditionalist through the work of such local bands as Los Lobos, the Blasters and Lone Justice, all of whom shared stages with Dwight.
