Carrying on a rich Southern tradition of combining swampy rock and soul, JJ Grey & Mofro are a bit of a throwback. The Jacksonville seven-piece formed in the late 1990s and gained popularity in the jam band scene (initially as Mofro). Their most recent release is 2015’s Ol’ Glory, their seventh studio album. With The Commonheart.

$32 ($29.50 adv.).

press release:

“JJ Grey concocts a vivid blend of blues, Southern rock and funk, complete with richly evocative lyrics and an easygoing sense of blue-collar storytelling . . . lucid, plainspoken American music.” – NPR
