The good folk at GoodBAMMsho blog scribed a nice piece about our Sofar Sounds house show last weekend (with other acts: Backwater Opera, Tom Bertram, & Haun’s Mill).
Sofar Sounds, Songs from a Room: My New Favorite Way to Watch a Show [Review]
Ryan Thomas Becker and Last Joke was definitely my favorite band of the night. The musical foursome had a vibe that was 100% passionate and completely entertaining. The group’s chemistry was solid throughout the set, trading off bluesy licks with an original Denton feel. The University of North Texas continues to churn out some of the DFW area’s finest local musicians in this small town music hub. With musicians like Ryan Thomas Becker and his friends it definitely won’t stay a hidden gem for long. One of my favorite tunes from the “Six Songs Written for Our Friends” EP was The Train. Melancholy, raw and emotional, Ryan and the boys left everything out on the living room floor with this performance. The vocals were powerful and the melody flowed perfectly into each string and beat of the drum. Loved it! Not to mention, apparently the Last Joke have “the greatest Tumblr blog ever” ….so I guess you better check it out HERE!
