Three Shows at IOTA
One of our favorite music clubs, IOTA, is hosting three shows we plan to see next week. Its starts Monday the 14th with a local singer-songwriter showcase featuring regular Justin Trawick and several others. We've seen Trawick and Chris Aaron Behrmann of Bad Luck Blue Eyes a couple times, but this will be our fist time hearing Bobbie Allen and Heather Renee.The following night, The Blasters come to town for IOTA's anniversary party. Can't believe Phil Alvin is still going strong. And finally, Justin Jones & The Driving Rain returns on Friday the 18th to entertain us with his alt-country rocking Americana style. Hopefully we will be able to get a video or two to post on MyJoogTV.

Justin Jones, Jason Isbell, American Aquarium - One Night Together at the 9:30 Club
For those of us in the Washington D.C. area, this Friday January 14th provides a rare triple treat downtown at the 9:30 Club: Justin Jones and The Driving Rain, Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit, and American Aquarium. We'd go see each of these acts individually - but all together under one roof - this is one night not to miss. Justin Jones is a local artist, who has finally received recognition to headline such an event. He has a powerful raw sound that holds an audience. Hope he plays "California". Jason Isbell is the former Drive By Truckers guitarist and songwriter who moved on to a solo career with the 400 Unit. We've seen Isbell with the Truckers, solo, and fronting his new band - each time completely entertaining. Not only is he a guitar wizz - but also a formidable songwriter. We first caught American Aquarium at last year's Floydfest and as is our background - loved their alt-country, rootsy sound. Add in some old school country pedal steel, some rockin' guitar work, and a tight sound and this is a band going places.
