Legendary guitarist Jesse Cook is to perform at Kelowna Community Theatre in November, the singer announced Monday.
Performing from his latest album, “One World,” the tour will stop in Kelowna on Nov. 14 at 7:30 p.m. Cook’s newest album features influences from the Middle East to South America, Spain and beyond.
“One World is my ultimate mashup,” said Cook. “A playground where different musical traditions from around the globe are free to roam. I like to think of it as a 21st century Byzantium, where east meets west, tradition meets experimentation, ancient meets electronic.”

The Canadian musician is widely considered one of the most influential figures in “Nuevo flamenco” music. He incorporates elements of flamenco, rumba, jazz and many other forms into his work.
Cook has recorded eight studio albums, three live DVDs and has travelled the world exploring musical traditions that he has blended into his music. In addition to headlining concerts and festivals, he has opened for such legends as B.B. King, Ray Charles and Diana Krall.
Tickets for the show will be priced at $42.50 plus service charges and will be available at the Select Your Tickets Box Office in Kelowna, online at www.selectyourtickets.com or by phone at 250-762-5050.
