At the age of 16, Keller Williams knew how to play a handful of guitar chords, and would even transpose songs he would hear on the radio to a different key, just to strum them out.

These days, the 54-year-old Colorado-based singer-songwriter has Yonder Mountain String Band and The String Cheese Incident on his collaboration resume, and is totally gaga for looping (the infinite repetition technique, dummy!).

Williams makes that ever-growing trend in live performances a part of his return to the Skipperdome where he’ll play tracks from his minimalistic new album Deer and more—all to support Tampa Bay community radio station WMNF 88.5-FM.

Tickets to see Keller Williams play Skipper’s Smokehouse in Tampa on Friday, Dec. 6 are still available and start at $35.
