The Floorwalkers
My buddy told me that The Floorwalkers were on his top 10 Best Live Shows Ever list and I was a skeptic. But these Columbus, OH bred boys brought a foot stomping show to Zazu's last night in St. Matthews. Despite a somewhat reserved crowd of head bobbers, D. and I danced in front because we just couldn't stand still. After the show, lead singer Jonathan Elliot came up to us to thank us for our enthusiasm. I was very thankful for my cowboy boots and swirly dress--perfect dancing attire!
Their talent is unmistakable with hints of folk, soul, and classic rock & roll that showcase their craftsmanship of composition and lyrics. They'll be at SXSW later this month which speaks to the caliber of music they're creating. I told Jonathan and lead guitarist Theo Perry (who gives the band their street cred with his picked out afro) that it's only a matter of time before they blow up.
Here's a couple of my favorites by The Floorwalkers:
