Review of Eric Johnson's show at House of Blues Dallas, 16 February 2017

Eric Johnson's "evening of acoustic guitar and piano" last night at House of Blues Dallas was an evening of superb musicianship on both instruments. But audiences can always expect that from Johnson. This one-person show was very relaxed and low-key. He jokingly asked the audience how we liked the band and was conversational and full of stories. The mellow, soothing quality of his vocals lent itself well to this performance, as did the intimate venue and the excellent audio quality. To me the highlight was the last song, a piano version of "Nothing Can Keep Me from You," which he explained he originally wrote on piano. All in all, a great change of pace. Well worth attending, although I look forward to hearing an electric guitar set again soon.
