Austin Walkin’ Cane ~ Tickets: €16
Commences 8.30pm
Austin Walkin’ Cane is a blues singer, songwriter, and slide guitar impresario who performs across acoustic, solo, duo and electric band mediums. He has toured around the world with only a guitar and suitcase in hand. Austin walked for ten years with a cane due to an arterial venous malformation he had since birth. While performing on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, a homeless man called out, “Hey Walkin’ Cane, got some spare change for a brother?!” Austin subsequently took the jibe as his nickname. In 1996, after years of battling the inevitable, his left leg was amputated below the knee. A year after the surgery, he returned to the music scene stronger and without need of a cane.
