Josh Fix
when: Sat 1.15 (9pm)
where: Café Du Nord
A few years back, as a new generation of bedroom
musicians bucked their humbuckers for Technics, it was
rumored that turntables were outselling guitars. Now,
kids are strapping on Stratocasters again but Guitar
Center might also want to stock up on Steinways,
because piano rock is also making a comeback, too.
Josh Fix could be the movement's tipping point. His
self-produced debut EP thrums with some of the
brightest melodies this year already garnering KFOG
airplay, an opening slot for the Who, and a phone call
from Eddie Van Halen marked by spunky, heartfelt
songwriting too smart to be considered merely "classic
rock" and a Jeff Buckley-esque voice that heralds a
talent to be reckoned with. (PS)
