Alvon Johnson and David Landon at Tallman Concert with Conversation

Each year in the winter and spring, the Tallman Hotel hosts a monthly series of intimate, informal “Concerts with Conversation” on Sunday afternoons in Riffe’s Meeting House next to the Hotel.

The January concert will feature an acoustic blues set by Blue Wing favorites and on guitars and vocals.

Formerly a vocalist with the rock and roll Hall of Fame group The Coasters (“Yakety Yak,” “Poison Ivy,” etc.), went out on his own and was voted 2005 Blues Guitarist of the Year. A polished musician and engaging personality, Alvon travels the world singing and swinging blues and jazz standards with various Big Bands. At our 2022 Blue Wing Blues Festival, his acoustic set with David captured the heart of the audience.

Singer, songwriter and guitarist brings over 20 years of experience from the stage and studio to every note he plays. In the early days of David’s professional career, he lived and performed in Paris and was a fixture in the European club and festival circuit. Since his return to the US, David has formed his own band, released 5 solo CDs, and played in countless recording sessions.
