Pokey LaFarge and the South City Three "Claude Jones" and "Drinkin' Whiskey Tonight"

If youve followed me on any of the social media networks I participate in youve no doubt been aware that I am a big advocate of Pokey LaFarge. Im not getting compensated for it, though it might seem like it. I just see him as this musician that is exceptionally talented and rare, who has a unique sound thats willing to work hard to get somewhere in this world. Hes on almost a non-stop tour schedule now with his band, The South City Three. I wont go into detail describing his sound you can hear it for yourself in the video, but I have gotten to know Pokey personally and I can tell you that his slight frame is packed with southern charm, the relentless drive of a wallstreet tycoon, the mischevious spirit of every class clown youve ever known, and, what seems like, one very old soul.

Every year or so Jools Holland has a band on his show that you can really see sticking around. Norah Jones, Sigur Ros etc, and I thought this band were so good on new years eve. Bought both albums and it's almost impossible to be miserable when they're on.

Once again, thanks to Jools Holland for bringing yet another group of excellent performers to our attention!
