marksc Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 There's a nice feature on Jason in this week's Telegraph and a a smaller piece in today's Star. Hope to see you there on Sunday. It's because of Jason and others that we have the Americana / alt-country scene we have today, real American roots music, simple and evocative. This a rare chance to see the Patriarch of Americana perform solo. You won't be disappointed. Ring me for tickets on the door - 0794 136 1510.
