Gaelic Storm
The latest to be rescheduled is legendary singer-songwriter John Hiatt. He’ll play Sept. 3, 2021. Tickets are $40, or $140 for premium seating, at lowellsummermusic.org.
If you think you’ve never heard a John Hiatt song before, you’re more than likely wrong. You may just have heard them being sung by others.
Take, for instance, “Thing Called Love,” which Bonnie Raitt too to No. 11 in 1989. That same year, the Jeff Healey Band took Hiatt’s “Angel Eyes” to No. 5. Then there’s “Have a Little Faith in Me,” which has been recorded by several artists, including Joe Cocker and Mandy Moore, who took it to No. 39 in 2003.
