Musician Doug Hawf will perform at Coffeyville Community College on Jan. 28th as part of the college's humanities series. The performance will begin at 10:30 a.m. in the Spencer/Rounds Performing Arts Theatre. The performance is free and open to the public.
Hawf, who hails from southern Illinois, has played music all of his life and is a wizard of stringed instruments — fiddle, banjo, and guitar. Hawf also performs with his family bluegrass band and plays first chair violin for the Vincennes University string ensemble. With a program titled “Bluegrass, Blues, and Roots,” Hawf takes listeners on a musical history ride, showing how these three genres of music intertwine, and how they have an influence on rock and roll and even pop music. When Hawf's not out playing music, he enjoys working in his music store and sharing the joy of music with his many students.
