This is the 5th time I’ve seen him with my wife and he’s always killer. This show was no exception. Searing slide leads and melodic, dynamic rhythm is the name of the game with Ariel. The only thing I was surprised was that he didn’t fill up the whole theater. There were a fare amount of people though. Thank you!!!
It had been way too long since Ariel made it down to Austin or Texas. His set was fantastic and the encore with a nice solo was very tasty! Crowd at Antone’s on a Wed was meh, but still great to see this guy play live. Can’t wait until the next show.
Ariel is an excellent musician. Really enjoyed his show and watching him perform
This was an amazing show. Welcoming and engaging. Ariel Posen is such an amazing musician. Singer. Songwriter. And the band is excellent. This was an awesome show with an awesome crowd.
Ariel and his band sounded tight as a drum. Ariel is the real deal. Fantastic show, the sound was so good. Ariel is so genuine and warm on stage (Canadians are so nice, we don't deserve them). He writes great songs, has a great voice, and has such a unique guitar style he's made all his own. All the guitar nerds were taking turns going to the front of the stage to take pics of his guitars and pedals, which was hilarious (I'm one of them). Go see him now before he's playing arenas and you'll have to watch him on a giant screen instead of right in front of your face. If you've never seen or heard him but you like the songwriting of say a Jackson Browne and the skwonky guitar of a Billy Gibbons/Mayer/SRV, you'll love Ariel.
Performance was fantastic, the sound quality was great, and the venue was great as well. Small venues are usually the best in my opinion since you can get so close to the performance. Ariel Posen is a monster guitar player and one of the best alive today in my opinion. Good songwriter and great singer as well.
he is god. ariel is god. lovely lovely man. definitely a god
