JJ GREY AND MOFRO

JJ Grey and Mofro, whose music oftentimes mixes the carnal with the cerebral in the very same song, will bring their Top of the World tour to Mobile on Thursday, Oct. 1, at 8 p.m. at Soul Kitchen Music Hall. From his early days playing cover music at a Jacksonville, Florida, juke joint while still working at a lumberyard, to playing sold-out shows at some of the largest venues and music festivals in the world, Grey has always delivered soul-honest truths. Since his first album, ‘Blackwater’, back in 2001, Grey has released deeply moving, masterfully written, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music. Tickets are $43 in advance, $104 for seated side risers. For more information, go to www.soulkitchenmobile.com/tm-event/jj-grey-mofro-top-of-the-world-tour.
