Nora Jones Guitarist Plays Local Gigs!
Jim Campilongo finally made it to the Living Room. That's New York City's premier listening room for audiences that want an intimate experience with their artists. That's great for the artist, but you'd think an artist of Campilongo's stature--he plays with Nora Jones and has been lauded by Billboard Magazine as "an American treasure"--would be playing Carnegie Hall.
Instead, you can hear him every Monday night for eight bucks at a cozy little room on Ludlow Street. This artist, who has appeared on David Letterman and Conan O'Brien, comes as close as he'll ever come to playing your living room by playing The Living Room.
His guitar playing takes listeners on a brooding, imaginative journey. He has influences all the way from Muddy Waters' dark, sensuous blues to Chet Atkins' chicken-pickin' country. This is listening music. This is a conversation with the artist held in notes, not words.
HIs blues stop and whisper as well as howl, his race through a country tune detours through bent Duane Eddy notes and flirts with jazz runs. His music is a journey through America as he visits all the great music centers from Memphis to Nashville, Los Angeles, Chicago and New York, as well as some small out-of-the way jazz clubs and honky tonks. There is even some Miami Latino in his chord/lead solos. No wonder Fender named a guitar after him.
Campilongo transitions suavely from sounding like a frantic cat in a room full of rocking chairs to a purring whine of contentment.
You can trust this guy; he knows where he's going and how to get there.
So cancel your own travel plans and take a trip with Jim Campilongo across the country and around the world (they love him in Europe and Scandinavia).
This is what New York is for, getting to live where the greats hang out
