This is a shot in the dark, but I was flipping channels before going to bed.
I came across some live outdoor concert footage, and caught two acts: John Mayer, and then a rootsy band I'm trying to identify:
The latter started with a blond female vocalist playing a Tele who sang a bit like Bonnie Raitt. There was an amazing guitar solo by a guy with a pony tail playing a red SG with a slide. A black, chubby bass player was playing a P-Bass oh-so-tastefully, in a comfortable pocket with a white drummer who had a light touch.
There were two black male b.u. singers (studio perfect), and a black organist -- wearing a hat, I think -- who knew both how to work the drawbars, and also when to play and when to lay out.
The whole performance was just so musical and flowing and gentle. I seem to recall it was mostly 2 chords repeated: ||: IV | IV | I | I :||
I thought I caught most of the band's name:
K Trucks and Jennifer something
but a search turned up nothing -- not on Google nor iTunes.
I think it was a PBS station - Vermont Public TV or Mountain Lake.
(either just before or just after midnight - Sun/Mon June 12/13)
If anyone has any clue who it was, I'm all ears!
thanks in advance
