🎵 Fun fact: one of the most recognizable instrumental tracks in history was recorded in a single session by a 17-year-old.

That teenager was Booker T Jones. The song was "Green Onions." And it launched one of the most influential careers in American music.

🏆 Rock & Roll Hall of Famer. Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. The man who defined the Stax Records sound alongside Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, and Sam & Dave.

🎹 He's bringing that legendary Hammond B3 to our stage one week from tomorrow. Tickets are still available, but not for long.
