  DON'T MISS THE OPPORTUNITY to see Junior Brown if you get the chance! It's pretty obvious why Junior Brown invented his own guitar. He'd leave a normal guitar, 6 string or steel, in a smoking shredded pile. Neither one would be enough for him so he invented his guit-steel. After seeing him live I'm sure it's got to be the toughest instrument ever made. For more than an hour he barely stopped playing at all, and in his classic lick-heavy style, none of the strings ever got much rest. Junior may not exactly be a young pup, but he has an energy level that few younger artists could match. All that did not keep him from sharing humorous moments & some anecdotes with the audience. Junior is a true showman. He bends the guit-steel to his will like a master woodcarver, & then takes ithe tuning pegs for a couple of twirls like a dance partner. Watching him, you feel that he's having a blast & could go on doing this with us for much longer. His tight setup had no problem transitioning to the small stage when rain closed the open air venue. The beat is provided by a 2 or 3 piece drum set but you never miss the typical full kit. There's the bassist, who has his skills put to the test. Like "walking" the bass at a Black Friday sale pace, but his faithful thumps were right where they needed to be. Junior's wife Tanya Rae provided the rhythm guitar by his side as always, & took the lead on "I wouldn't buy a used car from him". Junior lead it all from center stage. If you are not familiar with Junior's style: The majority of his sound seems kind of like Jimi Hendrix -meets- Johnny Cash. You really rarely see his level & plethora of picking outside of a bluegrass band or back in the guitar-liked power rock days. There's a very older-era feel to his tunes, but with fun lyrics that bring them up to date a-la "Hang up & Drive". At his show you will see the college age set along with the way-back-when crowd. He can be called Texas Country, loves to play live, & sings about places we all know. But then you have to throw into the mix, songs like Surf Medley, Secret 'Aging' Man, & remember that he does all the music for Spongebob Squarepants, & you realize, you can't confine him to anyone else's single style. Give him a listen on YouTube or your favorite streaming service, be wowed, then go see him & take it to a whole other level.

• Junior Brown was excellent as I expected he would be. It's been a while (15 years) since I have seen his show because of relocation. I'm back home and so happy to be. The food at Giest Mill was great, the show was great, what a wonderful venue. So many wonderful pictures of past shows and artist's bring back so many loving memories. It's a wonderful life! My husband enjoyed the show and we had a great evening. We both purchased Junior Brown t-shirts. I use to go see Junior Brown at Poodle Dog Lounge on Burnet Road years ago. He was always at the top of his game then and still is. His voice is surely a gift and I will always be on the lookout for his shows. It's always great to see a Blast from your Past. Have fun and be happy.

• Killer show, he was cool enough to sign stuff after the show. I have been to the last 6 or 7 shows and every time is great !

  One of my favorite live shows to see is Junior Brown. I have been pretty pissed because it took 6 yrs. since the last show in Seattle. It better not be another 6 years Damn't.

• I loved the show! He played for 2 hours and really had the crowd going. He was better than when I saw him last year at Kessler Theater. His wife Tanya is just as entertaing as Mr Brown. I cannot wait to see Junior Brown again.

• Junior is the real deal, he played nonstop for 90 minutes. Not a lot of gab between songs. One of the most underrated guitar players touring today and of course, his lyrics are legendary.

• The best guitar player on the planet. He was spectacular in a cool location. He does his favorites and some covers. Great show. The Mucky Duck in Houston was a perfect Irish pub

• Saw him at the Madison Theater a few years ago....He is the best and the best $30 I have ever spent on a concert. He can go from Bluegrass to Jimi Hendrix in a milisecond.

• Junior Brown is a must see! There is no one like him in the world. He is talented, funny, and the consummate showman. Totally worth your time to see him.
