Also watching him sand the soundboard of his acoustic guitar while making a train sound is also fascinating, if not precarious. The guitar work while he is singing is worth noting, some great country blues playing.

I recently performed at the same venue as Jacki, she  has an exceptional voice, and is  willing to chances ‘ in the moment’ with voice improvisations,  there’s elements of Jazz , blues in her music as well as folk country, a totally unique performer and very real.  A fantastic live act.
