Doug Wamble Presents Memphis in Harlem

“A one-man compendium of avant Americana.” – The New Yorker

A native of Memphis, TN, Doug Wamble has recorded and performed with a wide range of artists including Wynton Marsalis, Cassandra Wilson, Branford Marsalis, Henry Butler, Morgan James and Norah Jones. A student of the American roots tradition, he occupies a place as a guitarist where Robert Johnson meets Ornette Coleman and the two of them pay a visit to Thelonious Monk’s house. Doug is a film composer and has worked on many films for acclaimed documentarian Ken Burns. Wamble has taken the best music of his hometown, from W.C. Handy to Al Green, and all points in between, to present an evening of swing that brings the spirit of Memphis to the soul of Harlem.
