An Evening with Billy F. Gibbons: A Solo Performance at the Southern Theatre
Billy F. Gibbons, a renowned guitarist, is said to have received high praise from Jimi Hendrix himself in the late 1960s. This legendary encounter supposedly led to Hendrix dubbing Gibbons as America's top young guitar player. Gibbons, known for his fiery and fuzzy-toned technique, secured the 102nd spot on Rolling Stone's 2023 list of the 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Following the disbandment of his band, The Moving Sidewalks, in 1969, Gibbons went on to form ZZ Top with Frank Beard and Dusty Hill, achieving fame with hits like "La Grange," "Tush," "Cheap Sunglasses," "Legs," and "Sharp Dressed Man."
Fans in Columbus who witnessed ZZ Top's performance at KEMBA Live! in August 2024 will have the opportunity to see Gibbons in a solo performance at the Southern Theatre on February 3 at 7:30 p.m. Backed by The BFG's, Gibbons will showcase his musical prowess alongside two fellow Texans with impressive backgrounds in the blues genre. Ticket prices for the event range from $54.24 to $191.70, with a limit of eight tickets per person or household.
