Grace Potter
8 Jul2007
So you can keep your Joss Stones and your Amy Winehouses. I am in love with Grace Potter and her band the Nocturnals. I have been digging the album “Nothing But The Water” but I finally got to watch the DVD that came with the CD I purchased (in Vermont!) which has five cuts from a show they did in Burlington. What a good time that must have been! She really works the songs and the band (I especially dug when – at the end of “Joey” she breaks into Lucinda Williams’ “Joy”). Kerry hears a lot of Bonnie Raitt in her. I’ve checked her website (www.gracepotter.com) and the closest she will be to Jersey is the Central Park Summerstage in September.
You can bet – I will be there.

Glad to hear she’s gotten you. Some of the writing is a little youthy precious, but I listen to Ragged Company every chance I get.
We just got an advance of her new album…haven’t listened to it yet, except for the cuts already available. Interested?

A very good record indeed. purchased it this morning on my break. And a very good blog. I finally remembered to get the site from Aunt Terry. I’ll add it to my list of things to do everyday instead of work.

Glad you finally made it! Keep checking out the newly added stuff and let me know if you think there is something I should hear.
Also read the written works.
