"One of the 10 Best Releases Of The Year: Bringing a bit of the Florida swampland to your town, MOFRO's second studio release is nothing less than a perfect groove. Down home, dirty soul." Andrew Strickman, Rolling Stone JJ Grey and his band MOFRO exude rocking, funky, melodic, front porch realism in every song they play. Grey comes from along tradition of Southern storytellers, and his songs often times use the loss of his natural surroundings and the marginalization of the Southern culture he grew up in as a metaphor for universal truths. The band delivers his material with brilliant musicianship, resulting in music that is thought provoking, rhythmically dynamic and texturally mesmerizing. http://www.mofro.net Vancouverites, check this out. It'll be a hot night of music in a fantastic venue. Can you think of a better reason to escape the house on Easter weekend?
