“UK friends! It’s time to hop onboard this train!” says Portland-based keyboardist & singer-songwriter Jarrod Lawson in talking about his short December tour. “Tell everyone you know to grab some tickets to one of these shows! I’m bringing the heat with a seven-piece band… It’s about to be lit!”
Smokey-voiced Jarrod first made waves a decade ago with his eponymous debut album, since which time he’s been blending jazz, soul, funk and gospel to excellent effect, in the process earning comparisons with icons such as Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye... Support on the night comes from RnB singer-songwriter Stefan Mahendra.
