Driven by bold lyricism and an emotive, competent voice, Cameron Whitcomb brings his Fragile Egos Tour to town. The British Columbia native left home at the tender age of 17, took a job on a pipeline, and realized he’d rather be making music. He explores a softer side in his country-folk stylings, leaning more toward acoustic ballads than electrified holler-filled anthems. With both grit and vulnerability, Whitcomb confronts the demons of addiction and self doubt, while forging a new path forward through his confession-laden lyrics. $44.85, 8pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. jeffersontheater.com
