Jackie Greene brought his acoustic duo
show to Nashville's City Winery and left the very appreciative
audience hungry for more. Backed by Nathan Dale on electric guitar
Jackie performed a mix of his original material and covers such as
“Tonight I'll be Staying Here With You”, “Breakdown”, and
“Deadhead standards such as “New Speedway Boogie” and
“Brokedown Palace”.
Jabe Beyer opened the show and did a
great job of warming up the crowd for Jackie. He also later joined
Jackie's encore for a stirring rendition of “Ohio”.
Jackie Greene is on the move up
musically. He was already a success with several critically acclaimed
album debuts when he joined Phil Lesh of Grateful Dead fame as one of
the “friends” in “Phil and Friends”. That led to Chris
Robinson inviting him to play with the “Black Crowes” in 2013.
From there he became a member of the
super group “Trigger Hippy” along with Black Crowes drummer Steve
Gorman and Joan Osborne. which stole the show at the 2014 Americana
conference. It is very doubtful that anyone that caught the acoustic
tour shows left without realizing what a talented musician,
songwriter, and performer Jackie Greene is. And he just seems to get
better with every show.
