Hope to see them again! Texas jam band music at its best! Everybody played well, hitting on all cylinders! Not surprised they sold out. Bonecrusher mixed into songs 3 times with all the extended lyrics, great stuff!
I was at many of the Black Cat Lounge shows in the 90s. This show hit me like that. Kevin's voice and stage presence were spot on. The guitar work (both Bill's and Kevin's) was excellent and Conrad's drumming drove the sound, relentlessly driving "Wiggin'"as if Frosty were on the drum kit. Bryan's bass work was excellent as usual. They played all the hits, weaving episodes of Bonecrusher into the mix several times, then transitioning into something else only to return. Big Backyard was another highlight, as was crowd favorite, "Here."I had rather hear Kevin's lead guitar magic on "Here"than a fiddle solo, but the fiddler/cellist who joined them for a few songs was highly skilled. The band had rehearsed to the point that this show came off like a performance by a road-tested touring band where the members instinctively finished each other's thoughts musically and rhythmically. The jamming was as outstanding as it was unexpected for a band that only regroups a time or two a year. Book 'em again, Antone's! It will sell out. Maybe I'll get to hear Preacherman live again in this lifetime.
Packed house with the majority being die hard Soulhat fans! From the first note to the last it was truly amazing! Kevin McKinney surely is a master of song and stage presence. He had the crowd singing almost ever song! The vibe was incredible. Billy Cassis was true to form adding just the right leads and fills, with Brian Walsh holding the bottom end steady. The only thing that could be better is our dearly departed Frosty riding the drums like a chariot! Every moment was truly the epitome of rock n roll at its finest. From Good to be Gone to Bonecrusher I was riding the Soulhat high well into the next day. Super Cool!
First time I experienced Soulhat live. Great combo of funk and rock. Thoroughly got into it!
Soulhat will always get a 5 star rating. I missed the show due to an emergency, but hopefully I’ll see them next time.
Soulhat was all I hoped for- and the Grackles as opening were outrageous. What a surprise performance these experienced musicians put together for their premiere appearance. I, for one- can’t wait to see them again!!!
