Cape Symphony Presents: Pokey LaFarge

This will be a rare evening with one of America’s most distinctive roots music voices. Pokey LaFarge brings a series of exclusive solo performances to the East Coast this August, with Cape Cod as one of a select few stops. Join us for a special performance at Falmouth Academy’s Hermann Theater at the Simon Center for the Arts—an intimate listening room designed for experiencing live music up close. A unique blend of Americana, early jazz, ragtime, country blues, and rock and roll, Pokey’s music feels both timeless and completely alive. His performances draw from the deep roots of American music while carving out a sound entirely his own, balancing vintage influence with a modern edge. For these special solo shows, Pokey strips it all back to voice, guitar, and storytelling, offering an up-close reimagining of songs from his nine-album catalog alongside fresh interpretations of gospel, rock and roll, and country classics. Come hear an artist at the height of his craft, alone on stage, connecting with the audience in a setting designed for deep listening. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Pokey for the first time, this is a one-night-only chance to experience one of the most compelling performers in Americana. Presented in collaboration with MVY Radio and supported by Cape & Coast Bank and The Cape Cod Foundation through the Falmouth Fund, this evening reflects a shared commitment to bringing high-quality live music experiences to the region. This is a limited capacity performance. Early purchase is strongly recommended. Secure your tickets today!
