Guitar Concert - LJ Booth and Chris Kokesh

Urban Folk/Accoustic guitar and fiddle concert - featuring LJ Booth and Chris Kokesh. Come and listen to a wonderful evening of music starting at 7 pm at the Guemes Island Community Center. LJ has performed all over the country, and is currently on a concert tour of the Pacific NW including gigs in Seattle, Portland, Eugene and Sisters, OR. Starting with the band Misty River in 1997, Chris Kokesh became a distinctive voice on the Northwest music scene. With the 2010 release of her solo CD October Valentine her stunning songwriting, crystalline vocals, tasty fiddle and solid guitar have distinguished her as a stand-alone talent.

Here's what the critics have to say about LJ's music:

"LJ Booth is as literate as they come.  As a lyricist, he has the light touch of Lyle Lovett, the unabashed honesty of Leonard Cohen and the sprawling, joyous life of Walt Whitman.  The plainness of his imagery and the economy of his phrasing is only made more effective by his glittering guitar parts and the simple grace of his songs." ~Performing Songwriter

"LJ Booth is a truly consummate performer.  He combines the perfect blend of songwriting, great guitar work, and the art and charm to pull it off effortlessly. By the end of his set, the audience literally leapt to their feet to give him a standing ovation."
