James Hand, The Bellfuries, JD McPherson

Sat., March 2, 9pm

Antone's, 2015 W. Riverside, 512/800-4628

Signs and Signifiers, JD McPherson’s 2012 debut, blew a hole in the soul of roots-rock lovers everywhere. The Okie’s sound comes from a deep appreciation of Fifties R&B, yet he manages to break new ground with lyrics speaking of today, straddling the line between forward-looking and retro. McPherson’s also had the good sense to add his local friends, the like-minded Bellfuries, to the bill. Excellent new deep country disc Mighty Lonesome Man in tow, the enigmatic James “Slim” Hand opens. See Earache! blog for more with McPherson. – Jim Caligiuri
