‘Martini Cowboy’ Jack Grace
and his band will bring their unique style of New York City Country
Music to Dunmore East this weekend.
Jack Grace is the Martini Cow-boy, a New York City bred singer,
songwriter, guitarist and banjo-
picker. His songs are a fusion of urban country with enough whiskey
drinkin’, banjo-pickin’, card losin’, hangover sufferin’
ballads to keep |
everyone happy. Jack will blend in with his weather-beaten
cowboy hat and rugged boots but you should spot him toting his prized
possession, his 1947 Gibson acoustic guitar auto-graphed by his
heroes Merle Haggard and bluegrass legend Doc Watson.
Jack Grace’s albums to date
include ‘Introducing the sounds of Jack Grace’, ‘Stayin’
out all night’, ‘I like it wrong” and most recently
|
‘The Martini Cowboy’ which drew the following
acclaim from the Village Voice - ‘You can practically taste
the whiskey dripping off the songs.’
Guinness International Blue-
grass Festival organiser Mick Daly was thrilled with the confirmation:
“Jack will be a big draw this year, he already has a great following
here and I know he’ll go down well with everyone this weekend”.
