Jeff Buckley Tribute Night


Jeff Buckley was an artist who left us way too soon. We did not get to have enough of his beautiful voice in our lives before he died tragically while wading in the Mississippi River. To imagine what future releases from this brilliant artist would have been like is heartbreaking. The songs that he did bestow upon us before his demise represent some of the most dynamic and heartfelt music of that time.

Here's one of my favorites off of his 1994 release "Grace."



Mojo Pin - Jeff Buckley

And another of my favorites, "So Real." Just amazing!!!

So Real - Jeff Buckley

Such a versatile artists would have, without a doubt, had a long and illustrious career. The music world is worse off for not having seen his full potential come to fruition.

That being said, please come to the Howlin Wolf on Saturday, August 8 and help us celebrate the life of Jeff Buckley. Jeff's mother will be there for a Q&A, there will be a screening of the Buckley biopic "Grace Around the World," and there will be performances by For Karma and an artist TBA.

Tickets can be purchased from The Howlin Wolf Site.
