Rev. Chris
Reverend Chris and his band are a hoot and he's got an authentic voice that needs to be appreciated. Don't miss this:
Seating is VERY limited at the Mermaid!

"Jonatha sings about subject’s other singer-songwriters either ignore, don’t seem to consider. Instead, Ms. Brooke takes the plunge and writes about different subjects with stability in her well-crafted songs. Here, Ms. Brooke doesn’t waste any time grabbing your attention. Ms. Brooke’s voice is strong, confident, and instead of being distilled by production it is somewhat incendiary in a slow burn performance manner."
I'll be appearing with guitarist Tom Glenn and bassist Tyrone Brown at Paris Bistro on June 23rd 6-10 pm Come out and say "Hey" Reservations recommended!
And Don't Forget . . .
Jonatha Brooke at World Cafe Live on Wed, May 22nd 8 pm.
