Salvage Vanguard Theater presents the regional premiere of Jomama Jones: RADIATE beginning July 5th, 2013. Conceived by award-winning interdisciplinary artist Daniel Alexander Jones with composer Bobby Halvorson, Jomama Jones: RADIATE is part concert, part revival - featuring the triumphant return of legendary expatriate performer Jomama Jones. A mythical R&B diva who left the United States after a string of hits in the 1980s, Jomama Jones returns from the darkness as a lone star with a singular purpose - to awaken the comeback in us all, through her music and live performance.

Jones is accompanied by her collaborator and musical director, Bobby Halvorson, her backing vocalists, the Sweet Peaches - the extraordinary Helga Davis and Laura Jean Anderson, and a knockout band. She also welcomes a series of very special guests from the Austin community. Jomama Jones shares songs of resilience and regeneration as she recounts her rise to the stratosphere, her self-imposed exile from the U.S. and surprising observations of the America to which she has returned.

Performances run July 5th thru July 13th, Thursdays-Saturdays, at 8pm with one late night performance Friday July 12th at 10:30pm at the Salvage Vanguard Theater - 2803 Manor Rd, Austin TX 78722.

Tickets are available online starting May 27th, 2013 at http://jomama.brownpapertickets.com for $12, or can be purchased at the door for $15. Thursday, July 11th is PAY WHAT YOU WISH NIGHT - tickets available at the door. The SVT box office opens one hour prior to performance.
