So I do my best to support local music to the best of my ability today a singer I've taken the time to cover in the past one Casi Joy recently did a little hometown gig and since it wasn't more then ten minutes from my house I figured I'd go because you know its good to support those who do their best to give you something worth supporting.
Although before I get to talking about the show I'd like to make note that I'm not a country person for the most part but I will say that there are plenty of talented individuals and good songs in the genre and if you're looking for a really solid country pop sounding affair you'd do good to check this chick out
The show was a small affair mostly consisting of covers with a few originals sprinkled in and it's the originals that I'd highlight as really being the best part of this show because if you really want a feel for someone you have to hear songs they specifically made for their own voice and in this instance songs like her soft crooner, “Kiss You In White,” and “Keep Dancin'” really do her justice and show you that she's an artist doing her best to really make you feel the songs she's singing and in an acoustic setting the songs really take on a whole dimension compared to the album cuts which are very well done if not a bit on the well produced side.
Her album is a pretty solidly straightforward affair by the way with the opening track, “Filling My Closet,” being a pretty bad ass cut in all honesty on record and especially when played live and if you are into modern country but want an artist that's not really more pop then country you really can't go bad with her.
Overall this show was good and I'm most certainly going to keep a lookout for her coming back to my neck of the woods especially whenever she get's to doing sets of nothing but originals.
