Jason Crosby and Jackie Greene

Over the years, the singer/songwriter phenomenon has been booming, and unfortunately most artists are going for the same style of music and therefore not achieving the success that they desire and possibly deserve. Jackie Green however, has taken an alternative approach to the style of his singer/songwriter music by creating organic and original blues and rock music. Watching him perform live is always exciting, and seeing a multi-instrumentalist play guitar, harmonica, and sing throughout the same song is simply mind blowing and such a demonstration of his talent.

He opened the show with I Will Never Let Go, which was actually used in the film Brokeback Mountain, and he had everyone singing along straight away. The atmosphere was incredible, and the way that he commanded the audience and held us in silence in certain sections, but singing along in others was magical.

He played a really great selection of tracks from over the years, and even gave us a preview of a upcoming single which was awesome to hear performed live before a release. His charisma and stage presence match his talent, and it really was a fantastic show.
