jamie mclean band: this time around

the jamie mclean band rolls back into the charleston lowcountry this week to bless us with another helping of their funky, southern-fried rock & roll, and the band's namesake will, no doubt, have some new stories to tell and some new songs to sing. if you've had the good fortune to attend any of their previous charleston performances, you're probably familiar with jamie's blistering original tunes from this time around - his first full length album. however, expect to hear all new material from the group's upcoming, yet-to-be-released sophomore outting when you come out to cumberland's (301 king st.) on wed. july 25. jamie told me that they recently wrapped up recording their latest and greatest which will feature the dirty dozen brass band horn section, north mississippi allstars' ringleader luther dickinson, shannon mcnally, and producer stewart lerman (sophie b. hawkins, loudon wainwright iii). so, bring your boogie shoes wednesday night and expect to get down to one of the best live bands in the country!
