Jon McLaughlin

As always, Jon is a class act. I love that he's been touring with just himself and the piano these past couple of years. It's very intimate and he gets to really showcase his talents in an "unplugged" setting, coming up with new arrangements in solo piano accompaniment for his signature songs. His voice is like a nice bourbon, woodsy and raspy and rough around the edges, but always goes down buttery smooth. Paired with his virtuosic classical-piano-level chops on a beautiful Steinway grand piano, and his quirky deadpan storytelling in between songs, you really just feel like you're in the room at a jam session with an old friend, and that's one of the best feelings in the world. Seeing Jon is always a treat.
