Kenny Wayne Shepherd Returns Home For A Big Anniversary Show

One of Shreveport's own, blues-rock legend Kenny Wayne Shepherd, is officially coming back home for a massive show.

He's bringing The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band to Bossier City for the 30th Anniversary Tour of Ledbetter Heights. If you're a fan of his, or just a fan of Shreveport music history, this is a show you just can't miss.

Shreveport's Hometown Blues Hero Returns

It’s always a huge deal when Kenny Wayne Shepherd plays the Ark-La-Tex. He isn't just some big-time musician passing through...he's one of Shreveport's very own. This is the guy who graduated from Caddo Magnet High School, and then immediately took the blues-rock world by storm while he was still a teenager.

Shreveport fans have watched him go from a local kid tearing up the guitar, to a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated artist. Seeing him come back to play for the home crowd is something special...it just feels different than a regular concert.

Celebrating 30 Years of Ledbetter Heights

This isn't just any tour, either. This is the Ledbetter Heights 30th Anniversary Tour, celebrating that groundbreaking debut album from 1995. That album is what put him on the map and showed the world what a Shreveport guitar prodigy could do.

Even the album title is a deep Shreveport connection. It’s named for the historic Ledbetter Heights neighborhood, which itself is a tribute to another music legend from our area, Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter. It just proves how deep his local roots go.
