About Jamestown Revival
Jamestown Revival on Tour
If you’re going to a Jamestown Revival show, you better be prepared to participate. Harmony is at the core of Zach Chance and Jonathan Clay’s Southern-rockin’ Americana outfit, and if you’ve heard their 2018 concert recording, Live From Largo at the Coronet Theatre, you’ll know that their repertoire presents ample opportunities to sing and clap along. Expect rousing renditions of the band’s signature tracks - like the country-rock anthem “California (Cast Iron Soul)” and the tense, foot-stomping showstopper “Crazy World (Judgement Day)” - along with dips into a deep well of covers that includes the Jackson Browne/Nico standard “These Days” and the Steve Young-penned Eagles favorite “Seven Bridges Road.”
Jamestown Revival Background
Though they formed in 2011, the roots of Jamestown Revival extend back a good decade before that, when childhood friends Zach Chance and Jonathan Clay started jamming together as teenagers growing up in the town of Magnolia, Texas. Their official union would be delayed somewhat by Clay’s ascendant solo career, which earned the aspiring singer-songwriter a development deal with Atlantic Records in 2007. But he’d find greater success once he and Chance relocated to Austin to start Jamestown Revival - a reference to Jamestown, Virginia (one of the first settlements in the United States), and FM-radio icons Creedence Clearwater Revival. That band name served as the perfect advertisement for the new group’s sound - old-school Americana delivered with a classic-rock kick and dipped in Chance and Clay’s honeyed harmonies. Over the course of their first three albums - 2014’s Utah, 2016’s The Education of a Wandering Man, and 2019’s San Isabel - Jamestown Revival grew both in size and scope, with a six-piece lineup equally adept at gritty roadhouse rockers and atmospheric, desert-dusted ballads. But while stuck at home in 2020, Jamestown Revival got back to their duo roots with a mellow acoustic EP, A Field Guide to Loneliness, and a stunning, pitch-perfect cover of the Crosby, Stills & Nash classic “Helplessly Hoping.”
Great venue. Lots of room. JR is so awesome to see live.
Awesome show, i coukd have done another hour of this show.
Great show in a great venue. If you get the opportunity to see either of these bands you won't be disappointed.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! These guys are the best. They hung out with us after the show. Love them.
These guys are talented, have a great voices and put on a great show. If you haven't heard them, take a listen to California and Love is a Burden.
The guys of Jamestown Revival killed it! It was such an incredible, high energy show! I am still singing their songs and will never forget what an amazing night this was! Definitely going to see them again!
Their album is my favorite and the live performance exceeded all expectations. Do NOT miss these guys. After this year I'm sure every concert of theirs will be sold out. Amazing.
Jamestown Revival is even better live. Was lucky enough to stand very close to the stage and the band did not disappoint.
So great to see a show where the fans are as appreciated by the band as band is by the fans. Very sincerely sweet and talented young men with a great future ahead.
Absolutely great show. This band should make it big. Sound was great, band related well with the crowd. They are great musicians and performers. Actually met 3 of the band members walking around Cincinnati before the show. They stopped and talked and took pictures. After the show they were outside talking to the crowd.
This show was amazing! The venue was fabulous. The band was one of the best I have seen live, not to mention the lead singer came out and greeted the crowd as soon as the show was ever.
