Don Williams
Monday 12 May 7.30pm £35, £40, £46
The American country singer, songwriter and 2010 inductee to the Country Music Hall of Fame Don Williams returns to Liverpool Philharmonic following his captivating sold out appearance here in 2012. With his hits Good Ole Boys Like Me, I Believe In You, Love Is On A Roll, Amanda and Tulsa Time, Williams is an American classic.
He has always had a knack for finding songs that touch people’s hearts. Enlisting the help of his accomplished road band, Williams creates the kind of music that speaks to everyone. There’s a broken-in familiarity among his players that can’t be recreated by others – and those lived-in grooves fit Williams like his trademark Stetson hat.
