J. Roddy Walston hits the Big Top!

J. Roddy Walston

Roddy Walston is a force of nature. If his hits like HeavyBells area war cry, then the deep cuts like Boys Can Never Tell are a cosmic retreat. For some, his music is a form of religion, psychedelic in its intensity, transformatve in its grip on the body, shaking loose something primal that’s been buried too long. It’s not about thinking, It’s about moving, feeling, surrendering. His influences are a riot of contradictons: Kurt Cobain’s fury, Nilsson’s fractured sweetness, Zeppelin’s power, and somewhere in there a perverted nod to William Onyeabor’s lonely calculator funk. Critcs try to box him in, but Walston can’t be contained—he does chaos, and his live shows do damage, but fortunately his songs can pay the tab. Catch him and his band before he burns it all down again.
