John Dempsy is one of the most underrated artists in our wide scene. He’s a multi-instrumentalist and can play anything with strings in just about any band you throw him in. Yet, it’s his own singer/songwriter side that is the most interesting thing about him. Each song drips with emotion, each lyric is strained out with the most passionate vocals possible. This young man has seen some things and he will convey that to you. He’s a powerfully engaging live performer and we’re damn glad to have him back once more.
