Kele Goodwin

That was extremely pleasant. Kele Goodwin just finished his set of very well-crafted traditional 60s folk songs. Its really impressive to watch one horn-rimmed glasses-wearing, skinny white tie-wearing guy entrance 100 people with nothing more than a classical guitar and his rich mellow voice. At their best, folk songs like these, that manage to build something dramatic, personal, and catchy out of nothing but the most minimal elements, make all other kinds of music feel extraneous and pushy.
But, on the other, hand Gejius just flipped on his smoke machine and the whole crowd just popped to their feet, so there's probably something exciting going on over there that involves more than just a guitar and a voice. I'm gonna go find out what.
