Jake Bugg

Q Awards-winner and Mercury Prize-nominee, Jake Bugg is currently on tour in America in support of his latest release, Shangri La …

The Skins and Jake Bugg just finished their U.S. tour, stopping by Civic Theatre in New Orleans last week, January 30th.

The Skins

The Skins: I'll be honest but when I first saw this band the stage they looked like they were from the Disney Channel, but not that young. The Brooklyn-based band turned out to not be all that bad. It was kind of jam mixed with VV Brown style. Lead singer Bayli Mckeithan had an awesome voice, but the instrumentation just didn't blend well with her vocals. It will be tough for Bayli to leave her band to pursue a solo career. Two of her band members are her siblings, Reef and Kaya Mckeithan.

Jake Bugg: Great set from the prized star from England at the beautiful newly opened Civic Theater in New Orleans. Mr. Jake Bugg didn't play my two favorite tracks from his debut self titled album, "Slide" and "Simple as This". He played about half his set with songs from his 2013 release Shangri Las. His latest release is a little more heavier rock and roll but and has a bit more twist of country.

The very youthful audience went wild to all his songs and sung along, luckily with more of whisper so there was no competition on who was singing. Jake put on a great show switching from electric to acoustic guitars. The kid is only 19 and is working with Johnny Cash's producer and already has two top 5 albums in the UK charts, so he can do whatever he wants.
