Matt Jones' Random Acts of Verbiage

Last night (August 5th, 2005) Jason Harrod, singer/songwriter from North Carolina, performed over at Seattle’s Zoka Cafe. Greg, Chad, and I help out with setting up the sound system. We were quite professional… (read: we had very little clue. Even had to resort to calling Dan for help.) Jason showed up and played a great show highlighting many of the songs off his new album, Bright as You. I must say that I enjoy the new stuff, but prefer his acoustic versions to the studio verions (for the most part). The crowd at Zoka’s was one of the best I have seen in a while, everyone was really into the music and there was a pretty good size crowd so that was pretty cool. After the show we packed up and invited Jason back to Greg and Angie’s for some midnight smoothies. Jason is quite a nice guy, I think good times were had by all.

Last time Jason was at the Greenlake Zoka (July 26, 2003), we were able to record the performance. If you want to listen to the live cuts (including songs from the new album) head over to my Jason Harrod Live page. You can also read a review and hear some tracks from Harrod and Funck’s self titled album at my Harrod and Funck post. Check it out, lots of good stuff! Also, stop by Jason’s webpage for info on concerts, his bio, his music, and his mailing list.
