JJ Grey and Mofro: Olustee Tour

"Impassioned singing, riff-based Southern rock, cold blooded swamp funk and sly Memphis soul...Rich, funky blues celebrate life's most fundamental joys. Grey is a singer-songwriter with unforced talent and deep feeling." –The New York Times


Since his first album, Blackwater, back in 2001, Grey has been releasing deeply moving, masterfully written, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music. Now, with his new album, Olustee-his tenth and first in nine years, and the first he has self-produced-Grey is back, singing his personal stories with universal themes of redemption, rebirth, hard luck, and inner peace. With his music, Grey also celebrates good times with lifelong friends, oftentimes mixing the carnal with the cerebral in the very same song. Fueled by his vividly detailed, timeless originals spun from his own life and experiences in the Northern Florida swampland, Grey's gritty baritone drips with honest passion and testifies with a preacher's foot-pounding fervor.

JJ Grey and Mofro have played countless festivals, including Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, Austin City Limits Festival, Byron Bay Blues Festival (Australia), Montreal Jazz Festival and Fuji Rock (Japan). Over the course of his career, Grey has shared stages with the likes of Lenny Kravitz, B.B. King, The Allman Brothers Band, The Black Crowes, Los Lobos, Jeff Beck, Ben Harper, Booker T. Jones, Mavis Staples, and many others. Grey and his band continue to play over 75 shows a year across the U.S. and around the world.
