Concert Review: Andy Grooms, Austin Marks, Michael Coman and Colby Walter at Bad Art Bistro 7/5/13
Songwriting is sometimes lost in the mix. While adding instrumentation is important to songs, when you get down to it the songwriting is the skeleton and without it, there is no song. Still, it is an overlooked aspect of music. … Continue reading
Concert Review: Colby Walter sings Bob Dylan at Cafe Acoustic 6/13/13
It was an ambitious task by local musical talent Colby Walter but one he could handle. I don’t know if any other musician in town could have pulled it off but Walter nailed it. A night covering all Bob … Continue reading

A unique night that promised to be strange and unpredictable turned out to be exactly that. The premise was to build a concert around a screening of the documentary Body of War in support of that film’s centerpiece Tomas Young. … Continue reading

Concert Review: Hanni El Khatib at The Riot Room in Kansas City, MO, 5/9/13
Jack White and Dan Auerbach’s influence is being painted all over modern music. These two visionaries spearhead this latest “update on the blues” and their disciples are sprinkling the music scene as we speak and audiences are eating it up. Going … Continue reading
Concert Review: Tracy Huffman at Magoon’s Delicatessen in St. Joseph, MO 5/1/13
The best songwriters can pierce you to the bone with just one line. Hidden among the lore of Jesse James and the Pony Express in the town of St. Joseph, Missouri lies one of these songwriters. Tracy Huffman has been … Continue reading
Concert Review: Lucero / Langhorne Slim at The Granada, Lawrence, KS 4/23/13
