J. WOLFE
Hearing a J. Wolfe song is like walking on a trail with dozens of artifacts, historical & spiritual hiding neath your feet in all directions. Like feeling the moaning gust of a locomotive’s ghost goin’ by where a railroad once stood. With a career going over 10 years across Ohio, Texas, N.Y.C. & all points between, his songs are crafted with careful precision with guitar playing comparable to the sculptor’s chisel, carving tonal values & light underneath lyrics of warnings like lost highways & secrets of the heart & flesh. He & his band can always make a room dance.
