Mark Rose (acoustic)

I posted a few weeks ago about being invited to a private concert.  I'm so glad I went to hear Mark Rose preform for only 7 of us in the privacy of someones home.

His voice had me captivated and he had us laughing in-between songs with stories about his career, family, and about the owners dog.

Mark Rose, lives in Chicago and still tours, but in- between tours you can hire him for these private shows.  The more that comes  the cheaper it is to pay.  One of the guest has decided to hire him for another private show in November and I'm invited to it. 

What better way to get to hear an artist.....and get on a personal level with them.... I wish more artist did this..

The lighting in the room was low so the video quality is not that great

Gary Clark Jr. - The Chosen One


Have you heard of Gary Clark Jr. ?   Rolling Stones magazine ran an article on him in their August issue,
entitling it "The Chosen One"


Quote from the article:

"He made Eric Clapton want to play again, and Buddy Guy thinks he might save the blues. but Gary Clark Jr. isn't sure he wants to be the next great guitar hero"

 Whether this man is the next great guitar hero or not.  He certainly has soul
