A group of teenagers, who have their own bands, joined together and rocked the house for almost 40 minutes last night, and they can really play the blues.
On guitar are Leilani Kilgore and Tyler Ray Davidson (who is singing), on bass is Randon Davitt, and on drums Matt Fyke. These kids also come and jam at the SpeakEasy the first Saturday of the month in the afternoon – although in December they will be playing on the 14th. I will keep you posted with the calendar updates.
I got in from the cold northeast and headed over to Patrick’s last night. There was a good crowd and a lot of folks jammin up on stage. Here’s a clip of Jacob Levy singing (with a full stage of musicians with him – too many to mention).
If you enjoy hearing the sax, Walter’s Jam is a good place to go. If Walter isn’t playing himself (and often he is), other sax (and trumpet) players often show up.
You never know who is going to show up at the Wednesday night House of Blues jam. Tonight we’ve got Ronnie Baumslater, usually on bass, playing the lead guitar and doing vocals. With him are Kevin Cooper on bass, John Brooks on sax, and Bob Luke, visiting from Texas, playing the drums.
Every Tuesday night Walter Gentry hosts his Chicken Wing’s jam, and its a wild card as to who is going to show up. Around 11:30, Fuzzy Rankins and Kevin Cooper showed up and joined the drummers and harp player (not sure who they were), and they played Fuzzy’s song Red Rooster. He always gets the house movin and shakin!
