There comes a time in every music fan’s life, when the band or musical artist who they once viewed as hip and innovative, suddenly becomes seen as a nostalgic act. Which might be hard to argue when said band, of Montreal, founded by Kevin Barnes in 1996, is now celebrating the 20th anniversary of one of their most seminal and popular albums, The Sunlandic Twins with an ongoing tour. While it has never been my favorite album, (Satanic Panic in the Attic or Hissing Fauna and Are You The Destroyer both vie for that honor), I’ve rarely missed one of their live shows. There was no way I was going to pass up a chance to enjoy this 2oth anniversary celebration with new and old fans for what turned out to be a sold out show at Radio East on July 16.

What is Glam Daddy Blues? Texas’ own Jeremiah Jackson keeps the spirit of this self-invented genre alive in their upcoming single, “Soul Power” set for release on July 2. Along with members, drummer Mikey Uptmore, and bassist/producer, Dylan “Pickle” Fischer, the trio concocts a dreamy narrative that begs us to fall into the awe-inspiring influence of “Soul Power.” Glam Daddy Blues is Jeremiah Jackson’s answer to nourishing the soul and keeping it alive and thriving.
