A Break From The Norm

I know that my posts are usually hilarious to read and naturally they should be, as I am the funniest person you will ever meet, but this blog is gonna be a little different from the rest.

The other night I went to Murfreesboro to see a couple friends bands play. The first band was Patrick Mayberry. This guy is a very comfortable performer with really fun music. He is also freaking hilarious in between his song. Definitely check him out if you get the chance.

Next on the bill, was Elenowen. At the end of this show I was speechless. I have never been so taken back by music that portrays true and raw emotion like this. I felt moments of joy and moments of pain, moments of hope and moments of despair. It was beautiful. The band consists of husband and wife, Josh and Nicole Johnson. They have a new album coming out called, "Pulling Back the Veil." GET IT! and I'm not joking. This album will change you. Not only was there music remarkable, but their performance of it was incredible. You can tell that these songs are not only something they wrote, but a huge part of who they are. If anyone was at the concert, all I need to say next is, "have yourself a merry little Christmas." For those who weren't there, I'm sorry. Nicole performed this song with just the background jazzy guitar by Mark Trussell. It was my favorite Christmas cover I have ever heard. The entire crowd was is awe during this song. Simply brilliant.

To top the freaking night off, Seeing Skies performed after Elenowen. Could I have asked for a better concert? Probably not. Seeing Skies continues to amaze me with their unbelievably tight sound and stage performance. The music is simply brilliant. Parke is a freaking genius. Cody is Mr. McNasty on the lead guitar. Garrett slaps the bass better than Chris Brown slaps Rhianna. And Asher is just ok. Just kidding Ash. Seriously, the drums make this band stand out from the rest. These guys will blow you away with their musicianship. It's quite a site to behold. Seeing Skies also has an album up called, "Wake up." Its another must need album.

Seriously, check out all three of these amazing artists.
