I attended the J.R. Wyatt CD Release show last night. J.R. sounded amazing. I have been a fan of his since I saw him perform a solo set at Logue's Black Raven (RIP). He writes amazing songs, has a great voice, and last night he was backed by an awesome band (who all played on his new album, Staying Gold which is out now). Expect to hear more about this album very soon....
E2TG Artist of the Year Jon Latham went on right before J.R. playing his first full-band show one year after completing the mastering on his album Real Bad News. He has had an incredible year. Having seen him perform many times and having been impressed many time, I feel like last night was Jon's star turn (or something like that). Yes, his band was extraordinary - filled with great musicians and songwriters and friends (Aaron Lee Tasjan, Eli Rhodes, Sean Quinn, and Raun Shultz). and they were every bit as good as one could have expected. Still, it was Jon Latham's stage and he owned it completely. It is truly heartening and inspirational to see the growth of his confidence and stage presence in the almost two years since I was first introduced to his music. Yeah, I'm one of those, "I knew him before..." people, and I say that with pride and joy!
Time for a Music City Monday shuffle:
