Austin Spotlight: New Album from John Wesley Coleman (+Release Shows)
If you haven’t caught a John Wesley Coleman gig living in Austin, then perhaps you’re doing it all wrong. Â Or, maybe you just caught The Golden Boys instead. Â Either way, he’s one of my favorite local songwriters, unfortunately dubbed by many as a trashcan-troubadour. On his new single there’s a really striking fragility to his vocal performance, which I haven’t heard from him before…though I quite like it. Â The rest of the track is filled with his trademark guitar stylings and blasts from his companion horn section. Â You’ll be able to grab this new song on a 7″ from Urinal Cake Records soon, and catch him at Trailer Space on Thursday or Hotel Vegas on Saturday night where he’ll also have a new record for you too! Yeah Wes.
