Jess Klein (10/26/11)

Seeing Jess Klein was coming to town really took me back, all the way back to 2005 when I saw her the first time.  Sounded like a perfect show for a Wednesday night in Cleveland.  I bellied up to the bar early and ordered a quite-delicious burger from the Beachland.  Jess Klein took the stage and was a talented as I remember (and I'm sure more-so).  Such a great range of style, effortlessly switching from country/bluegrass sound to a sultry blues number.  I really got a Patty Griffin meets EmmyLou Harris vibe.

Take a listen (entire show over at kingofthecastle7):

Tom Freund was actually the headliner this night.  Good performance, but this night was really about Jess for me.
