Jay Buchanan is just as comfortable singing with Jason Isbell or The Bee Gees, Miranda Lambert, Massive Attack, The Bloody Beetroots, or Brandi Carlile as with the arena rock band he is usually known for.

He’ll be in our area for a show at Revival Asheville on Tuesday the 22nd, after a live session here with Alex.
