Mason Jennings was shining!
by BettyAnn8 on 4/10/10The Ark - Ann ArborRating: 5 out of 5I've seen Mason Jennings a couple times before, performing with a band, but this experience was like no other. The Ark in Ann Arbor has always been a favorite venue of mine since I first saw a show there in 2002, because it is so intimate and the Ann Arbor crowd is generally warm and kind, and the venue is run entirely by volunteers. Mason seemed very comfortable (like he was in his living room, he said, and we were all just catching up), and played a very sweet solo set that wasn't full of all-new songs trying to promote an album. His stories and comments between songs were heartfelt and funny, and he remains to be a charming and pure songwriter and performer of the years.
