Eyes may bug and jaws may drop at this Kansas City cat's ability to play three parts on the same guitar at the same time, but the real seduction is in Dan Bliss' voice. Sounding considerably older than he appears, and even a little Burl Ives-y at times, Bliss has pipes that leave you open to the human condition and all seven deadlies, which he personifies and plays out on his strings. This style of blues both soothes and riles in its collision of complex picking patterns and simple charm. It's downright mesmerizing.
Dan Bliss plays Wednesday, March 10, 7 p.m. at FLCC Honors House, 4340 Lakeshore Dr, Canandaigua. Free. 394-3500.
