WITH HIS frizzy faux-hawk hair, gangly limbs and bowling-pin face, Lyle Lovett has never been particularly easy on the eyes. Lucky for him, he’s got one of the most polished, heartrendingly resonant voices to ever fog up a Texas microphone. It’s those golden vocal chords, plus a knack for subdued guitar arrangements and gospel undertones, that’s earned him four Grammy Awards and undoubtedly what helped him land a marriage to Julia Roberts and a steamy fling with stunning film producer April Kimble. No, Lovett may not look like he knows what women want, but he most certainly knows what they want to hear, and that, it seems, is the same thing country and blues fans do.

LYLE LOVETT performs Wednesday (Aug. 5) at 7:30pm at the Mountain Winery, 14831 Pierce Road, Saratoga. Tickets are $50–$85.50. (800.745.3000)
