With a harmonica wrapped around his neck, a guitar strapped to his back, and a glass of Jamison on the rocks sitting stage right; Wil Cope effortlessly sang somber songs with powerful imagery and range to a relaxed crowd at Canal Street Tavern last Wednesday, October 11th. Cope has mastered the lost-on-a-highway sound that reminds the listener of days gone by.
The intimate rapport that he builds with his audience is why Cope has been a big part of the Dayton singer/songwriter circuit for more than three years. He just released a new full-length cd that he was playing in support of.
Also on the bill Wednesday was a solo Billy Catfish. Without his band, Billy could not let loose as much as usual, but his set still provided the energy of the evening. He played songs for the potheads, cokeheads, junkies, and his friend’s meth lab with a slightly distorted acoustic backdrop. He finished off his set with a cover called The Mailbox Blues and a noisy banjo.
Wednesday was the first of three dates that Cope and Catfish would play together. The two are off to play Columbus and Nashville over the next week.
