A Valentine Evening Featuring Dru Davis in Concert

A Valentine Evening Featuring Dru Davis in Concert


The Arts Council of Dickinson County is proud to host “A Valentine Evening” featuring Dru Davis, Live in Concert, at the Abilene Convention & Visitor’s Bureau, 201 NW 2nd St. on Friday, February 12 at 7:00 pm.  Beverages will be available, by donation.

Dru Davis is a Kansas-born singer, songwriter and guitarist. For the last decade, he has been performing high-energy pop music in the heartland, always with a splash of funk and blues. Last August, Davis released his much anticipated debut album. The self-titled record represents his music well – full of life stories, catchy melodies, head-bobbing rhythms, and soulful vocals.

Davis’s live performances have become known for a wide variety of cover tunes. A show might include modern hits, 80s dance songs, blues numbers, gospel, and more – with Davis adding his own style along the way. As Davis puts it, “It’s more fun to play songs no one expects a singer-songwriter to play.”

Then there are Davis's original songs. His material is always born out of life experiences. Jamaica, a song written immediately after a trip there, has become a flagship tune off the new album. It’s a narrative about how lovely a getaway can be – and it can also get stuck in a listener’s head for days. 

Tickets for the evening are $10.00 and can be purchased at the Arts Council of Dickinson County, 203 N. Cedar Street, the Convention & Visitor’s Bureau, 201 NW 2nd St., and also at the door on the evening of the event.  

The information can also be viewed on Facebook at Arts Council of Dickinson County, or by calling the Arts Council office at 785-263-1884.  You may also email reservation requests at artscouncilofdc@gmail.com.
