It’s evident from the way that he masters the guitar that James McMurty has been playing since he was a child. The Texan singer/songwriter gave a solid and exciting performance of his rock and roll and folk music along with his talented band members. As soon as he took to the stage, after a very brief hello, he launched into Freeway View accompanied by this full band, and with the addition of backing vocals, filling out the sound. Although there weren’t many people at the show, the atmosphere was great, McMurtry took tome to engage with us in the crowd, and give us little explanations of the origins of his songs and reveal the motivations of their narratives. It was really special to hear such in depth analysis from the artist himself, and in my opinion one of the best songwriters living at the moment.
He played through Just Us Kids chronologically, and it was awesome to hear it live, as I’ve listened to the recording over and over again. Towards the end of the set, he revealed that he has an album in the pipeline called Complicated Game, and played us a track from their as a preview. It was incredibly exciting to hear the music before it’s released. The show was everything I was hoping for and more, I’d definitely see him live if you get the chance.
