Matt Schofield

November 2, 2024 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Image: British Blues great Matt Schofield coming on November 2.

Opens: November 2, 7:30 PM; Doors open at 6:30 PM
Admission: VIP (First 6 rows): $40; General Admission: $25 (Plus $7 in fees).

British-born (and now US-based) Blues guitarist Matt Schofield returns to the Raven for another electric performance. Schofield continues to push the frontiers and reshape the boundaries of the British Blues tradition. He is a multi-award-winning guitar virtuoso, singer, songwriter, producer, and band leader. After more than 30 years of performing, Schofield’s impact as one of his generation’s most influential and distinctive guitarists is unquestionable.

What remains ever impressive is Schofield live, so if you missed 2022’s sold-out show, make sure you catch this one! From main stages at prestigious festivals such as Montreal and North Sea Jazz to packed houses in legendary clubs like New York’s Iridium or London’s 100 Club, Schofiled’s ability to connect with audiences immediately and profoundly is unforgettable. Schofield’s authenticity, mastery of guitar, emotive vocals, and improvisational brilliance are brought to life within his innovative original compositions.
