1. He is out playing everywhere this summer
Don't get too comfortable, just plan on moving over
“I wanted every note and lyric to mean something,” he told RS. “With the records I’ve made before, there’s so much emphasis on guitar: We’ll just play a badass guitar solo, and no one cares about the lyrics. That’s not what I got into it for. I like Quincy Jones. I like Stevie Wonder. I like Ray Charles. I like Cab Calloway’s arrangements. I like bridges, pre-choruses. That’s something I never really paid attention to https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/see-gary-clark-jr-s-vision-of-rural-america-in-what-about-us-video-795835/ |

2. My wife and I saw him 3 years ago at the Pageant
Which is a great theater in St Louis - But I doubt we'll be able to catch him in a small venue ever again.
He is amazing live, plays every genre effortlessly, sings so much better than I expected too |

4. I'm overjoyed to introduce great artists to people who never knew them
It's one of the most rewarding parts of being an obsessive music nerd.
Glad you like him |
