Three years ago, I saw JJ Grey and Mofro on a sleepy night in Memphis. Mofro's mix of swampy North Florida soul and juke joint funk gave two of my friends a reason to call in sick to work the next day. He downed several glasses of bourbon, hurled dollar bills at his horn section, and pushed his band over the bridge song after song. We shook our asses and hollered for more. JJ Mofro could put two steps into a paraplegic, so if you like dance parties don't miss them.
JJ Grey and Mofro will tour this fall with Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears, our generation's hipster James Brown. The two bands will play Colorado five times including a Friday night stop at the Ogden on September 17.
