Doug MacLeod, an award-winning and world-renowned Bluesman, will play Gainesville, Florida on Saturday, February 13, 2016. MacLeod is one of the last remaining bluesmen who learned from the old masters, lived the music, survived the life and carries forward that valuable tradition. Within the blues world, MacLeod is known for his superb songwriting, guitar wizardry, warm soulful vocals, wit, and unforgettable live performances. At the heart of this is his knack for storytelling, bringing characters—from the faceless to the legendary—to strikingly real life.

*He has won two Blues Music Awards (formerly W.C. Handy) in 2014: Acoustic Artist of the Year and Acoustic Album Of The Year, He has been nominated for several consecutive years for: Best Song in 2006 ("Dubb's Talkin' Politician Blues"), in 2014 ("The Entitled Few") and in 2016 (“You Got It Good (and That Ain’t Bad)”), Acoustic Artist of the Year: 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013,[1] 2014, 2015 and 2016. Acoustic Album of the Year in 2012 (Brand New Eyes), 2014 (There's a Time) and 2016 (Exactly Like This). His portrait is displayed in the Delta Blues Museum in Clarksdale, Mississippi. He received the Golden Note award for Best Original Recording (for his album You Can't Take My Blues). His songs have featured in Grammy Award-nominated albums: Albert King's I'm in a Phone Booth, Baby (1984) ("Your Bread Ain't Done"), and Albert Collins' Cold Snap (1986) ("Cash Talking, The Working Man’s Blues").
