Prachtopening van ons seizoen 12/09/2023

According to phone translation:
Those who have seen Jim Keller perform at Cafe Roots already know: this singer with the gritty voice is an impressive interpreter of big-city music for the fans of Tom Waits, JJ Cale or Lou Reed. In New York it is well known: when Jim Keller performs, you don't have to look for good music anywhere else. All good musicians are on stage with him, or sit in the hall. For this show, the accompaniment is tip top fine with his own bassist Adam Minkoff and guitarist Jan van Bijnen (Freek de Jonge, Point Quiet, Rob de Nijs and others).

If you want to know where Jim will perform in Oss on Wednesday 20 September or just want to sign up, you can send an email to [email protected]. You can thank us later for this tip. Highly recommended!

Thanks for this one

Als je even een paar minuten hebt om deze hele post te lezen ...... dan haal je misschien ook de onderste van alle loftuitingen nog op het album Spark & Flame van Jim Keller, de man met zoveel gruis in zijn grote-stads-americana dat hij (niet altijd terechte) vergelijkingen aangemeten krijgt met Lou Reed, John Hiatt, Tom Waits, John Prine en andere grootheden. Zijn optredens In New York worden (net zoals zijn optredens hier in 2021) als indrukwekkend ervaren en dat zal tijdens zijn tournee in september niet anders zijn als hij op het podium bijgestaan zal worden door zijn musical director Adam Minkoff met Jan van Bijnen, Roel Spanjers en Rowin Tettero als gastmuzikanten.

Wat media vonden van Spark & Flame:
https://www.altcountry.nl/blog/2023/01/jim-keller-2/
Volwassen mannen-rock voor liefhebbers van John Hiatt en Chuck Prophet. ****

Lucky Dice Newsletter: CD van de maand.
Zijn songs en muziek hebben wel soms raakvlakken met een bluesiere Lou Reed, een beetje van Tom Petty en wat van de gruizige duisternis van Tom Waits gelardeerd met Los Lobos “Kiko” achtige sfeertjes. Spark & Flame is een zeer fijne nieuwe schijf van de intrigerende man met zijn donkerbruine stem.

Lust For Life **** (print)
Dit album duurt langer dan het half uur van zijn voorganger en dat is maar goed ook want de liedjes van Keller hebben tijd nodig om in te werken op de luisteraar

https://www.altcountryforum.nl/
Waar Kellers vierde wapenfeit nog klonk als de moerasfolk van Tom Waits meets J.J. Cale doet de opvolger Spark & Flame enigzins denken aan het folkrock werk van John Hiatt. En daar bedoel ik niets negatiefs mee, want de samen met Byron Isaacs bovenmodale composities nestelen zich vrij rap in je hoofd. En dan doe je toch iets goed.
“Een oorverdovend verstillend mooi album. Tom Waits, John Prine, vleug Beefheart en Harry Chapin in een persoon.”(Gerry Jungen, radio)
