Michael Kelsey played in bands for many years in his native Indiana (he’s from Lafayette), but he found himself drawn to exploring in more depth what the instrument could do, free from the restrictions of a band or genre format. As a solo artist he performs his own tunes and sings as well, but the spotlight is on his rangy, experimental acoustic guitar playing, augmented with percussive effects that make listeners forget there’s no band.
When he comes to the Kent Stage again, noted Northeast Ohio acoustic fingerstyle guitarist Brian Henke opens. Tickets are $18 in advance $23 at the door.
