Unfortunately, Mother Nature was not in a good mood this weekend and Nashville is pretty much at a standstill. To that end, the 9 PM show at the Listening Room featuring Mark Stephen Jones, Mary Hartman and me has been rescheduled for Feb. 27th at 9 PM. It'll be that much better with newer songs and lots of surprises lined up!

Just a thought--we can only hope that Nashville and Davidson County consider investing in more snowplows, road sand/salt and manpower for times such as these… Continue

Blues Jam @ The Red Rooster, Every Monday Night!

The Red Rooster at 1530 Demonbreun, every Monday night!!! It's near the roundabout. This town needs more venues for all the great musicians to play, with people that care! The needed function, such as the Monday Night Blues Jam, has plenty of free parking and no cover, what's not to love!! The place has been hoppin' since it opened.

Bad Vocal Mistake Great Musicians Make In Live Gigs

Performing artists rise in my list of favorites based on one thing: Do they get my emotional attention?

There is a reason that Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne and John Mayer don't move me in live performance like Bono, Sting and Mat Kearney do. The difference is surely NOT in brilliant, creative musicianship.. all six are full of that. It's not in the magic of their edited recorded vocal performances we hear on the radio in which we understand almost every word. The difference is that… Continue

J. K. Coltrains Unofficial Guide to Often Used Music Terms

You’re a Real Musician When:

You’re a Real Musician When:

You realize that the cheers from the audience after a particularly

difficult passage are for a sports play on the big screen TV over the

bar, and that in fact, no one is listening to you.

When the gig you drove 200 miles for to make $100, and had to pay for a

hotel room, is later referred to as your "summer tour".

When your most sincere, heartfelt comments are made by people that are

drunk and who won’t remember… Continue
