Utah’s Music Events, Venues, Musicians, Open Mics, Nightlife and Clubs

Xavier Rudd with Jeremy Fisher

Known not just for his wholly original approach to making music and must-be-seen-to-be-believed live shows. Xav is also recognized as a great Australian activist, advocating for indigenous rights and environmental responsibility. Both his social conscious and sense of hopeful exultation co-exist on Dark Shades…”I was given two eyes and I see,” he writes on “This World as We Know It.”
From the opening notes of “Black Water” to the title track to the rocking “Up In Flames,” it is clear that Dark Shades of Blue is something different and thrilling from an artist who has always carved his own way.
Xavier Rudd will be delivering his talent to The Depot on August 15th!
Tickets will be available at Smith’s Tix Outlets, 801-467-TIXX, 1-800-888-TIXX, http://www.smithstix.com and The Depot Box Office (Day of show @ 5pm)
