Hello all, I have been away from the blog for a bit, so it is good to be back for good reason. I had the opportunity to listen, watch, and photograph Leroy Justice last night.
FULL PHOTO GALLERY LINK BELOW
Leroy Justice is a solid band out of NY. They were back in Connecticut last night at the Fairfield Theatre Company after putting on a great show at the Gathering of the Vibes festival early August at Seaside Park in Bridgeport, CT.
Leroy Justice brings an Americana style rocking blues band with a blend of county and soul. Close your eyes, and you hear The Black Crows, Rolling Stones, and Allman Brothers in their genetics, but, LJ has a sound all their own. LJ has put together two studio recorded albums over the past few years. Loho Sessions, LJ’s most recent album is super tight. LJ mixes it up with great lyrics with dynamic sound. Lead singer and guitarist, Jason Gallagher has a great vocal range with nice tones and solid harmonies. Bassist, Bradley Wegner often sings harmonies with Jason. The band can strip down to an unplugged setup and don’t lose their POP, like many bands do. Too many rock musicians hide behind the reverb and distortion, and other effects pedals. LJ has a clean sound, great chemistry, and Jason has great stage presence. He is a great front man for the band. I enjoyed seeing them out again, and hope we can continue to do some work together.
Watch them as they play “Out to Sea” on the Brooklyn Bridge. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9oumWTJ4JY

FTC is a great venue, unbelievable acoustics that you just do not expect when you walk in there. But it is superb, and so many great bands have come through the FTC. If you have not gotten out to see a show there, please do. www.fairfieldtheatre.org.
