Cody ChesnuTT is quite possibly one of the most talented soul and/or rock and/or roll performers to come down the pike since Prince lost his marbles and drifted into irrelevance. Unfortunately the man seems to limit his appearances to either New York, L.A. or Europe but in October and November he?s actually braving the more central states here in the U.S. of A.
Better yet, musical chameleon The Incredible Moses Leroy is opening for ChesnuTT on a few dates. I caught this cat at SXSW about four or five years ago with a super stripped down band at a private party at about 11am and he still tore the roof of the joint. Later he reinvented himself in Beck?s image and went for the everything and the kitchen sink approach. These are shows not to be missed.
We have also included a few dates where Mr ChesnuTT is opening for the incredibly bland John Mayer just in case Mr ChesnuTT and Mr Leroy ain?t makin? it to your ?berg. Don?t worry, Mr ChesnuTT will spice up the night enough to make up for ten John Mayers.
