If you are into old school soul/R&B music you need to check this guy out. His name is Leon Bridges - he grew up in Ft Worth and has been playing around here for several years. (between shifts washing dishes at Del Frisco's) His style is along the lines of Sam Cooke or Otis Redding. He was a big hit at SXSW this year and was on The Late Late Show last night. Hometown boy about to make it big!

Love that sound ... Great to hear from the locals.
Gary Clark Jr. is an Austin guy I really like as well. He's not as underground as he once was, but still talented none the less.Comment
