Cameron Dettman performs at Artesian Cellars

This Santa Barbara-born singer moved to Las Vegas when he was 5 years old. Listening to the sounds of his parent’s generation, Cameron Dettman absorbed musical tastes from the eras of bell bottoms, floral patterns, wah-wah pedals and an abundance of male falsetto. His eclectic musical influences make for a truly unique style all his own. Taking the smooth sounds of 70’s soul legends and magically combining them with modern pop sounds like Maroon 5 and Bruno Mars, Dettman creates a beautiful representation of “old school meets new school.” Cameron also mines from influences of classic rock, country, and blues. 7-9 p.m., Artesian Cellars. Free admission, but for the best possible service, a call with your table’s headcount would be greatly appreciated. 1731 S. Hwy. 160. 775-600-7144.
