JJ Grey & Mofro | blue-eyed soul | April 7
Blue-eyed soul is a term used to describe R&B or soul music performed by white people, originally associated with mid-60s artists such as The Righteous Brothers...Seriously (look it up).
It's also used to describe Florida-based JJ GREY and MOFRO's smart, soulful blues-funk music--tinged with the intensity of Otis Redding--about class, race, and the southern landscape. Glide Magazine noted: "JJ Grey's smoky vocals leave you wondering, where did this white boy get so much soul?" (read more @ www.glidemagazine.com).
They'll be performing on April 7 at Richard's on Richards (1036 Richards) in Vancouver. Tix $16 (INFO @ www.richardsonrichards.com). Other cities HERE. Listen to their tracks on their MySpace @ www.myspace.com/mofroband.
