Re: Kris Barras Band

Enjoy, but no spoilers, I'll have to wait until Hartlepool.

As an aside, make sure you catch Jack J Hutchinson at Sittingbourne too. If you haven't heard him yet, you're in a for a treat. Paint No Fiction was one of last year's best albums.

Mike,

We've traded a few bands over the years, but I think Jack may be your best recommendation to date.  He's got such soul and passion in his music.  Paint No Fiction just gets better and better after each listen.  I also really like Austin Gold's album, Before the Clouds.  Real music...  Don't miss Greta Van Fleet when they land across the pond.  Another band that makes me want to get up in the morning.  Don't think I'll be posting here much more, but I wanted to thank you for your passion for great music.  This forum is fortunate for your input.  Rock on everybody, it's what we all still have in common in this divided world......

Wow! Thanks for that Scott; I just see it as returning the favour and the example you set of blurring the boundaries and listening without prejudice. You've steered me toward loads of really good music that I would otherwise have missed and I'll always be grateful for that. In this world of almost constant communication, do, please find the occasion to keep in touch as you feel.
May your God be with you....
