August Knight

Canadian singer and songwriter August Knight is hell-bent on bringing road-worn and ragged alternative folk-inspired country music back to the forefront. He’s inspired and it shows. Anchored by rich storytelling and a swampy, been-there-done-that swagger, Knight tells it like it is and you can hear it clearly in way he bravely delivers his vocal. Knight has brewed up a sound that tilts its hat to troubadours of the past. If you listen closely, you can hear echoes of John Prine, Bob Dylan and Kris Kristofferson – sometimes, off to the left, Bruce Springsteen and Steve Earle creep to the edges.

THE AMERICANA PROJECT reflects Knight's commitment to his roots and offers an evening of original acoustic music enhanced by songs by such luminous artists such as; Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, Woody Guthrie, Steve Earle, Townes Van Zant, John Prine, Guy Clarke, The Band, Jerry Jeff Walker, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix and more!!
