Mavis Staples: A Living Legend, Live in Chico

Dates and Times

Make a night of it before Mavis Staples takes the Laxson stage.
Party on the Patio starts at 6 p.m. with live music from Chico’s own Scout the Wise, plus food, drinks and a chance to gather with friends before the show.
Scout the Wise
Chico musician Scout Parker, performing as Scout the Wise, is a singer-songwriter, composer and multi-instrumentalist whose music moves between indie pop, folk, electronic and R&B influences. A prolific local artist, Scout brings deeply personal songwriting and an eclectic sound to the patio for the perfect start to the evening.
Then, head inside Laxson Auditorium for Mavis Staples with special guest Jamie Drake.

Her music has earned more than 25 million Spotify streams and recognition from NPR Music, and her acclaimed album “Everything’s Fine” landed on Wilco’s list of favorite albums of 2019. Her more recent work expands her folk roots with Americana, bossa nova and a fresh, nostalgic edge.
