John Mayer leaves thousands happy after a Saturday night affair at Freedom Hall

Even with some conspicuously missing hits, the songsmith and guitar wiz obviously plays before crowds most nights of the week.

 

John Mayer has it figured out.

Somewhere along the line of his career, he hit on the perfect formula of writing hooky, mass appeal pop songs while still being able to work out the neck of his Stratocaster to make the dudes in the audience almost pump their fist.

Last night, he and seven other top-of-the-line musicians stood on a pretty basic stage at Freedom Hall and lit up the night with a set replete with loneliness, soul, and the aforementioned guitar histrionics.

John Mayer brings the circus to town this weekend

His mouth has been doing a lot lately, but we're about to see what he can do with his hands.

Oprah discovery Joshua Nelson, the ‘Prince of Kosher Gospel’ sings, celebrates human rights Sunday

"Hebrew soul" singer to perform at music festival this weekend


Gospel is a word that usually brings to mind Christian New Testament writings or associated music. On Sunday, March 14, Joshua Nelson, the “Prince of Kosher Gospel,” brings his vocal stylings—Jewish lyrics  set to the music of African slaves—to the 8th Annual Adolf & Sara van der Walde-Rosenbloum Music Festival.

Nelson’s performance, titled “Good for the Soul,” will be held at Congregation Adath Jeshurun, 2401 Woodbourne Ave. in the Highlands. The festival marks the 50th anniversary of the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights.
