Our First-Ever House Concert!

Jay Buchanan and special guest Jim Pearson

Live in concert at the new Rockin' Horse Ranch!

December 1, 2007, 7:00 P.M.
181 Hart Bench
Darby, MT 59829

Join us for an evening of out-of-this-world musical talent from two accomplished musicians who will be providing the type of entertainment that will leave you hungry for more.

Jim Pearson

Jim Pearson is a versatile musician, singer & songwriter who is vastly experienced in numerous styles, including Blues, Rock, Country, and Jazz. He's toured all over the world with legendary live bands and major artists such as Edgar Winter, Isaac Hayes and Mark Isham. An accomplished studio artist with an extensive background in composing and arranging, "Jimi" has spent most of his life producing others and making them sound good, and now we will have the treat of seeing him perform several of his new original songs. Jim is not only an extremely gifted and creative guitar player, he is also well versed on the keyboard, to put it mildly, and his beautiful melodies have been known to bring bring tears to even the most stoic people.

Jay Buchanan




Vocally falling somewhere between Dave Matthews and Darius Rucker (Hootie to you!) is South Cali singer/songwriter, Jay Buchanan, the namesake and leader of the recently disbanded national recording act, Buchanan. With his powerful, emotional, incredibly passionate & soulful performance, you will find yourself leaning forward in your seat and spellbound. JAY CAN BELT IT OUT LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS!!

More than a frontman when it comes to the delivery of the music, Jay also plays a variety of instruments on the band’s 2004 disc, All Understood (produced by veteran Don Gehman----John Mellencamp/REM/Tracy Chapman), and plays them well. He has also created some damn tasty arrangements that will be found ear-appealing to everyone from folkies, to jazzers, to progressive/jam rock fans. Click here to listen to samples from his solo acoustic disc.

His accomplishments include opening for Hootie & The Blowfish, playing a side stage at a John Mayer/Counting Crows concert, and the soundtrack "If you Leave" for the 2007 movie "Waitress" starring Cheryl Hines, Kerri Russell, Jeremy Sisto and Andy Griffith.

Hi,
I'm happy to see a studio on hart bench. I have a great studio tool if you want to try it out.A Line 6 Vetta II and Variaxe. Do you ever need a sitar or 1925 national? or a JTM 45 Marshall or "59" Bassman?

Hi J.B.! Thanks for your post...I relayed your message to Jim, and he wanted me to let you know that he's heard of you (Westfork), and would like to meet you. How did you find this blog? Did someone show you our concert flyer (just curious)? BTW: That would be great if you can make the concert; it's going to be awesome, if I don't mind saying so myself! teeheehee...
Regarding the delay on your post appearing, I have the blog set to allow me to approve the comments before they post, just in case one of them terrorists shows up here! Donna (the spousal unit) :o)
