Skip Ewing

This show was like winning the lottery! I have been a fan of Skip Ewing for a long time. I have waited a long time to see him in concert. I have Skip Ewing's channel set in Pandora. All of a sudden a Skip Ewing song comes on that I don't know off an album "Wyoming" that I don't have. That night I ordered Wyoming and last Christmas album. I have been watching his website and was getting other social media updates. I was just hoping that another concert would come up. I was willing to travel if need be. So, to my amazement I get a notice the he is playing Dixon IL, only a little over an hour away. I purchased ticket immediately. The venue ended up turning the concert into a free event, but honored those that had purchased tickets with the seats we had picked after refund and offering tickets to future show (and that wasn't the lottery part) It was just Skip and percussionist, Noah. The show was so intimate. He was telling stories of his life and songs. He played requests. I can't adequately put into words how fantastic he can play and the magic of his voice. He carried a near two hour show with just his voice and a guitar. It is a show that has been with me every day since. He is often categorized as County, as a singer songwriter. He is that but so much more. He is a story teller. His music paints pictures in head and on your heart. This was my first Skip Ewing concert but as long as he is out there sharing his music, it won't be my last! Thank you Skip! Can't wait for the release of Dragonfly!
