For those of you in Utah, there are a few people I know who perform regularly and have a few cds available (with some new cds coming before March!) and I just wanted to familiarize you with them...
The picture above is of Benton Paul. He's pretty popular among the Provo music scene. He is releasing his second album ("Grey") at the Covey Art Center in Provo on March 6th. He has sent me a few songs from the new album and I have to say they are very polished and sound fantastic!! If you have heard his album "The Wise & The Weak," be prepared to be blown away at how much he has grown as an artist/entertainer!!!
The picture below is of John Allred and he is the other performer I'd like to educate you on. Though based out of Salt Lake, John has been a favorite at the Provo venue, "Velour" since it opened 2 years ago. For the past several years he has been performing with his band, "ALLRED." Recently, the band members decided to go in separate directions and are now performing solo. John's songs have such depth and emotion behind them, you can't help but feel his pain or his joy and sympathize with whatever situation he is singing about. John is releasing a cd on February 9th at Solid Ground Cafe, in Sandy.
