The venue was incredible. Small, intimate, with a state of the art sound system. Of course I went for the music, and Reed and his band did not disappoint. Monica Rizzio was the opener. A Texas girl in the Northeast, brought the best of East Texas Country. The Reed and Co. Reed is an incredible songwriter and singer, soulful and heartfelt. Two of his longtime collaborators, Jefferson Hamer played electric guitar, having apparently made a deal with the devil. Putnam Murdoch, who writes frequently with Reed played bass, and Jeff Berlin is a magician on drums. Everything about last night was truly magical.
