Caught Boz Scaggs live at the Orpheum Theatre in Omaha Nebraska at the end of July and was blessed with good seats. Georgia was my second favorite song of the night, behind Harbor Lights, which I was very much hoping he would play. This was a bucket list item for me since I have always liked Boz Scaggs songs and he didn't disappoint. I will have more individual songs later from the concert. Shared the experience with my Filipina wife who actually knew some of his songs growing up. His opening act was Keb Mo who I thoroughly enjoyed too. I would do it again the next day if I could! Thanks Boz and Band!
Boz Scaggs Biography by Jason Ankeny-Silk Degrees Boz Scaggs is a Grammy-winning, chart-topping blues, jazz, and R&B singer/songwriter and performer. He served as guitarist and occasional lead singer with the Steve Miller Band in the 1960s, and in the '70s gained fame with several solo Top 20 hit singles in the United States, including the hits "Lido Shuffle" and "Lowdown" from the critically acclaimed multi-platinum proto-disco breakthrough album Silk Degrees (1976), which peaked at number two in the Top 200. Scaggs' earthy tenor ranges wide across virtually any material he chooses to sing.
His laid-back delivery belies his intense focus and passion. His recordings run the gamut from blues and R&B dates to pop standards to jazz and rock, cut with some of the finest musicians in the business. While he records infrequently, when he does it's an event. More recent recordings -- including 1997's Come on Home, 2013's Memphis, 2015's A Fool to Care, and 2018's Out of the Blues -- all reflect his lifelong obsession with R&B, soul, and blues that originally captured his attention as a high school student and budding musician in Plano, Texas.
In addition, his live appearances, particularly with the all-star Dukes of September touring group that included Michael McDonald and Donald Fagen, have underscored that assertion. Born William Royce Scaggs in Ohio on June 8, 1944, he was raised in Oklahoma and Texas, and while attending prep school in Dallas met guitarist Steve Miller. Scaggs joined Miller's group the Marksmen as a vocalist in 1959, and the pair later attended the University of Wisconsin together, where they played in blues bands like the Ardells and the Fabulous Knight Trains.
