Bill Callahan

Overview

Growing from his rough, garage-inspired acoustic rock of the early nineties into clean, driving Drag City rock and roll, Bill Callahan has sent imaginations worldwide rollicking into the American desert for a casual 12 albums. Boosted by those ominous baritone vocals, Callahan's been spinning yarns for years under his stage name, Smog, and more recently under his birth name. He's returning to Vivid this year to deliver four intimate performances with his long time collaborator, guitarist Matt Kinsey.

A modern advocate of Appalachian folk mixed with country rock and roll, Callahan's tunes tell a magical story, captivating audiences with his deep and edgy oeuvre.
