March brings lots of Music some dance and a little barking to the DIXIE

The Dixie Theatre continues their 14th Professional Season and March brings music like nobody’s business with Del Suggs starting us out on Friday March 4 at 8 PM. Del is an award-winning singer/songwriter/guitarist and one of Florida's premier performers. Best known for his unique style, which he calls "saltwater music"...acoustic rock, pop, blues, and folk...with a sunburn! Del has cut a remarkable path during his thirty-plus year career. He has produced and released five albums of his own songs plus over a dozen releases for his independent label The Cascades Recording Company. Suggs is an original…one of those individuals who may come on stage as a stranger, but leaves it as a friend. That is a rare gift.
