Jesse Roper is a blues / americana artist bringing live shows buoyed by his virtuosic guitar playing. Based in Victoria, BC and a pillar of soul icon Booker T. Jones’ band, the stage is where Roper shines. It has been his home since overcoming crippling stage fright during his early twenties. Fear is a part of Roper’s past that barely seems real today – especially when you see the in-concert image of a six-string soldier, hair matted to his face, tearing up the stage, without a hint of second-guessing.
Artists on stage: 8.00pm
