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. Or, maybe you just caught The Golden Boys instead. 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. The rest of the track is filled with his trademark guitar stylings and blasts from his companion horn section. 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.
