Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm
Drawing on the wide-ranging influences of his five-decade career, Don Was and the Pan-Detroit Ensemble’s Groove in the Face of Adversity channels the soul of the Motor City through a blend of steamy jazz, juke-joint blues, and loose-limbed funk—a sound both timeless and deeply personal. In concert, Don and the band will feature music from Groove in the Face of Adversity alongside a live rendition of The Grateful Dead’s Blues for Allah, honoring the album’s 50th anniversary.
