Pure Energy, great songs and music
by Fender64 on 6/23/22Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra BeachThe opening act (wish I could remember his name) was a hit with us. Songs about growing up in the Deep South while trying to sort out his identity as a gay man was a turn I’ve never heard before. BJ and his latest group just couldn’t be any better. Like many great showmen, his energy level is off the charts. While many performers take a needed rest, BJ just plows into the next song with as much feeling as he spent singing you the previous number. We spend a lot of time and money chasing singer/songwriters across the world, but rarely do they have the level of musicianship that his 5 band members displayed. All were excellent, but the drummer and steel player stood out. It took us a while to figure out why the sound was so perfect, and it might be the rhythm section, and BJ’s acoustic guitar.
