Leo Kottke... Date: Thursday, Nov 06, 2008. Time: 8:00pm. Location: Celebrity Showroom at John Ascuaga's Nugget. Price: $32. Genre: Americana. Leo Kottke is an acoustic guitarist. He is widely known for his idiosyncratic finger picking style, which draws on blues, jazz, and folk music influences, and his syncopated, polyphonic melodies. Focusing primarily on instrumental composition and playing, Kottke has sporadically moved in a vocal direction, singing in an unconventional yet expressive baritone style. In concert, Kottke intersperses humorous and often bizarre monologues with vocal and instrumental selections from throughout his career.
