[COUNTRY] Dwight Yoakam, the 60-year-old country singer from Pikeville Kentucky, has always been a man of many talents. He is, of course, a honky tonk musician first and foremost. He’s released almost two dozen records since 1986, his most productive years being the early 1990s when he released a string of platinum and gold selling records—If There Was a Way, This Time, and Gone. But he hasn’t really slowed down much at all either, having released his latest album, Swimmin’ Pools, Movie Stars… in late 2016. In between his Grammy Award Winning musical projects he’s also found time to act in movies and TV shows, most notably as one of the villains in Panic Room and as Bruce in the FX show, Wilfred. He’s also got his own brand of frozen cheese biscuits. The question that we’re all wondering, whether or not he’ll have some cheese biscuits on hand when he comes to Artpark on Saturday, August 12—is still unanswered, however. You’ll just have to find out for yourself.
