80’s/90’s Country Superstar Dwight Yoakam in Shreveport This Week

Last fall, The Boot listed Dwight Yoakam's Top 10 Songs and for any true country fan over the age of 35, there's probably not a single one they can't sing along with.

From "Guitars, Cadillacs" to "Streets of Bakersfield", "Little Sister", "Fast as You" and "Ain't That Lonely Yet", Yoakam renewed that Bakersfield Country sound first popularized by Buck Owens and Merle Haggard.

This Thursday, June 2, at 8:00 pm, the ACM and Grammy Award winner, Dwight Yoakam, will bring that sound right here to the Shreveport Municipal Auditorium!

Doors for the event will open at 7:00 pm and there are still some tickets left for the event.

Even those who might not have been country music fans during the prime of Dwight Yoakam, might recognize him from his many Hollywood movie credits including:

• Sling Blade (he was Doyle Hargraves)
• Wedding Crashers (he was Mr. Kroeger)
• The Newton Boys (he was Brentwood Glasscock)
• Four Christmases (he was Pastor Phil)
• Crank (he was Doc Miles)

Those can be purchased online HERE from ticketmaster.com for as little as $39 plus service charges.

Tickets are also available by calling 800-745-3000 or at the Shreveport Municipal Auditorium box office which is open weekdays from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
