JJ Smith and his band return to Crystal Lake after receiving first prize in Raue Center’s Battle Of The Bands last year.
An emerging artist from Chicago, Smith’s songs offer a modern spin on the Rock and Folk movements of the 60s/70s. With a dynamic and powerful range, Smith’s vocal stylings bring the likes of Robert Plant and Jeff Buckley to mind, while his intricate guitar work evokes that of Nick Drake and Jimmy Page.
Joining him is fellow Chicago artist, Jake Racina, whose jazz-infused, story-driven songs evoke a unique and forlorn sense of timelessness.
