Good Music Week
Thursday, I caught Greg Trooper for the first time. He regularly plays the Mucky Duck, and I don't know how I've missed him for so long, but I'm glad I solved that problem finally. The guy's voice reminds me a bit of John Hiatt, he plays some evocative tunes, and he was backed by a good band (including our friend Rick Poss from the Dead End Angels on guitar, and Houston's own Jack Saunders). I'll definitely catch Trooper next time he's in town.
Last night, I saw Kimberly M'Carver with Gary C on his recommendation. She sang a whole bunch of pretty songs with that beautiful voice of hers. I'm going to have to catch her at a more listener-friendly venue one of these days, because she's really good. And it was an excellent last-minute substitution for seeing UH Cougar baseball in the cold/dampness (even though the Coogs pulled off a big win).
