Glen Campbell Tribute
This show is filled with Glen’s hits, led by his former right-hand man Jeff Dayton. Dayton calls on fellow alumni from the tours and together, they share the joys and fun, the stories behind the songs and an intimate reflection on the pain of losing an artist who was a great friend to us all. Presented by Crossings at the State Theatre on Sat., Mar. 24, 7:30pm.Jeff’s 15 years with Glen Campbell were filled with stories, shows and adventures, traveling and recording with one of America’s best-loved and most-respected country/pop artists of all time. It’s only natural that since Glen’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis and his recent passing, there would be a demand for his music to still be heard. Jeff has been answering that call with Remembering Glen Campbell, on tour now.
From the White House to the Grand Ole Opry, Jeff Dayton has been playing guitar and performing all his life. He’s a Nashville producer and writer and loves the concentrated creative scene in Music City. His hometown roots in Minnesota and years in Arizona earned him a the job of bandleader with Hall of Fame artist Glen Campbell for 15 years. He also found time to land his music degree, regional hit records and the honor of backing artists including Vince Gill, Willie Nelson, Toby Keith, Buck Owens, Tracy Byrd, Bo Diddley, Dizzy Gillespie, Gene Autry, Mac Davis and many more. Once arriving in Nashville, Jeff focused on writing and producing, but because of his reputation and guitar skills, was soon touring with megastar Kenny Chesney, Lee Greenwood, Sarah Darling, Tammy Cochran and others.
