Presented by the Cape Cod Cultural Center on Saturday, September 25th at 7:30 pm. “Outstanding.” This is how the Rolling Stone describes this experienced artist, who was back at the cultural center by popular demand. “Roger Salloom’s voice is easy to compare to early Bob Dylan, but this vet’s penchant for telling a great story puts him in the same category.” – Time Out New York. Imagine Jack Kerouac, John Belushi, Lord Buckley, Lenny Bruce, The Diggers and Leadbelly, Jimmy Reed, Lonnie Johnson, Geoff Muldaur, Dan Penn … singer-songwriters. Salloom has performed with The Band, Steve Forbert, Doc Watson, and John Prine, to name a few. He was at the center of the 1960s San Francisco scene, playing the Fillmore with Santana, Van Morrison, BB King and Procul Harum. He moved to Nashville in the 1970s to devote himself to songwriting, then disappeared for 20 years to raise a family as a single parent and draw a syndicated cartoon. Salloom is a mixture of blues, roots, Americana, country and soul and always speaks from his heart. He has a self-deprecating, humorous, everyone’s quality, mixed with a strong sensitivity and depth of character. So compelling is his story that it led an award-winning filmmaker to direct So Glad I Made It, the saga of Roger Salloom, America’s best unknown songwriter, who won six awards, was on the 2006 Grammy poll and was featured around the world US received rave reviews “… The writing talent of Dylan or Guthrie … musical genius … hilarious and tragic, kind-hearted and carefree, all the complexities of a real person.” –IMDb. $ 25.
