After Battling Cancer, Chris Daniels returns to Denver to take the Swallow Hill Music stage

WHAT: Chris Daniels concert, "An Acoustic Night with Chris Daniels & Friends", 12-10-10
WHERE: 71 East Yale Ave., Denver, CO 80210 at 8 p.m.
INFO & BOX OFFICE: www.swallowhillmusic.org, (303) 777-1003 x2
TICKETS: $15 Advance; $17 Day of Show. $2 discount for Swallow Hill members
DENVER — Swallow Hill Music is thrilled to welcome home its former Executive Director and musician Chris Daniels of Chris Daniels and the Kings for An Acoustic Night with Chris Daniels & Friends.

After a difficult battle with leukemia and many months living in Houston, Chris has returned to Denver and will take the stage to continue his amazing music storytelling with his tradition of blending blues, funk, rock, and maybe even some creole jazz with the help of his friends.

Ironically, Chris and friends will be playing on the night that country hall of famer Charlie Louvin was scheduled to play Daniels Hall. That performance was canceled due to Charlie's continued struggle with pancreatic cancer. We trust that on the night of 12/10 some good health vibes will be in the house to send Charlie's way.

Please join us and get tickets early for this special night to celebrate both Chris' good health and great music!
