Black Joe Lewis & The Honey Bears : Live at Hot Freaks! : SXSW 2008

Black Joe Lewis & The Honey Bears were one of the really fun, live suprises of SXSW 2008 for me. I had heard mention of this band when they were out opening for Spoon last year, but had yet to hear the recorded work or see a live show. The Club DeVille set was full of big, bold soulful grooves that had everyone dancing. With his soul revival sound, James Brown-esque yells, a fresh face and a big smile, Black Joe Lewis was very easy to love.

Gunpowder is a preview of BJL's second LP, currently being recorded with Spoon's Jim Eno and expected for release this year.
