"BRIGHTER DAYS is JJ Grey's first-ever live DVD/CD.
The two-disc set includes a full-length movie and a
long-awaited live album. Directed by filmmaker Spookie
Daly (whose work has been aired on MTV Networks,
Much Music and Fuse), the film intersperses riveting
concert footage of JJ and his band Mofro with the
stunning beauty of Grey's north Florida home, the
inspiration for so much of his music. The film also follows
Grey and company into the studio and features band
interviews along with insightful commentary from Grey
and others, recalling the format of classic
"rockumentaries." 78-minutes of stellar performances
from the film are captured on the accompanying CD.
Shot on January 22, 2011 at the Variety Playhouse in
Atlanta, Georgia in stunning HD and boasting 5.1
surround sound, BRIGHTER DAYS finds JJ (vocals, guitar
and harmonica) and his band — Andrew Trube on lap
steel and electric guitar, Anthony Farrell on organ and
piano, Art Edmaiston on saxophone, Dennis Marion on
trumpet, Todd Smallie on bass and Anthony Cole on
drums — giving everything they have. Singing and telling
stories with preacher-like conviction, JJ breaks down the
wall between the audience and the performer. "I've
always felt that music opens the door," says Grey, "but
we've all got to walk through it together."
BRIGHTER DAYS perfectly captures Grey's power as a
performer and writer, as well as the talent of his
heavy-hitting band Mofro. As old fans know well and new
ones keep discovering, a JJ Grey & Mofro show is a
musical celebration shared between Grey and his
audience, with each driving the other to greater heights.
With BRIGHTER DAYS and an overflowing tour schedule,
the bond between Grey and his fans grows deeper and
JJ Grey's future looks brighter with each passing day."

Southern rock at its best IMHO.
