JJ Grey & Mofro Live @ Lafayette Square – Thursday At The Square Buffalo, NY
JJ Grey & Mofro opened for Jimmy Vaughn and played an excellent set. The band sounded great and and the crowd turned out early to support these blues greats. These guys hail from Jacksonville, Florida and have been impressing fans across the nation at many of the major festivals. Grey first coined his blend of rhythm and blues, soul and funky rock and roll as “Mofro Magic” in 1997, based on the continuous southern slang being thrown around at a lumberyard in Jacksonville, Florida (JJ’s hometown) where he worked. According to his bio on the band’s website, Grey comes from a long tradition of Southern storytellers, and his songs often use the loss of his…
Jakob Dylan Takes The Torch Live @ Thursday At The Square – Buffalo, NY 07.03.2008
I’m going to keep this brief as I’m about to run out the door for the Blue Heron Festival but I wanted to get this up before I left as I’ll be coming back with a bunch more music to post and I don’t want to get behind. Bottom line. Great show. Jakob Dylan has captured everything that is good about folk music. The crowd absolutely loved him. My dad grew up listening to Bob Dylan and it was surreal to see his son a generation later playing some incredible folk music for this Buffalo crowd.

Three-peat for YMSB | Lafayette Square Buffalo 06.08 | *SBD* MP3
Last year they predicted it, this year they delivered. YMSB became only the third band in the 22 year history of Thursday At The Square to do “an evening with” at Buffalo’s best outdoor venue. After playing the past two years in torrential downpours the sun finally shined for their 3rd appearance. YMSB put on an excellent show playing two sets for a total of over 2 and half hours of intense newgrass. This is a must have set for any YMSB or newgrass/jamband fans. Jeff Austin and the rest of the guys love playing for this crowd in Buffalo. For those of you who have been to a show at Thursday At The Square…

Benevento Russo Duo | 08.31.07 MP3′s & PICS
To grab this entire show in MP3 format click here. Last Thursday “The Duo” came on at roughly 5pm to a sparse crowd in downtown Buffalo. I was expecting a bigger crowd for these guys considering how well Buffalo has received the other jam bands that have played this summer. As time went on The Square slowly filled in. The Duo seemed to enjoy themselves regardless and put on a rocking set that they closed with an improvisational cover of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” To download the torrent for the flac files of this show click here.

Keller Williams | 08.09.07 | Buffalo
I missed the show this week at Lafayette Square as I was camping at Allegheny State Park for the week. I had planned on coming back on Thursday but I was having too much fun in the wilderness to make it back to town midweek. After listening to the show I’m kicking myself for not making it. I’m sure the hippies of Buffalo were glad to hear a few Greatful Dead jams including the encore “Women Are Smarter.” KW is one of a kind musician who has played jam festival Bonnaroo and Red Rocks. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to KW yet I’d highly recommend downloading this high quality set. The show…
