To this day we lament our unused tickets to see The Smiths in San Francisco (instead they broke up right before) and Joy Division at the Starwood in LA (instead, well, you know….).  In the wake of his Best of 2014-listed new album, Carry On The Grudge, another Brit-fave, Jamie T., announced he would play only four dates(!!) in the United States, including the Roxy in LA on December 3rd, and we jumped at the chance.  Rave reviews followed his sold out October/November shows in England.  Unfortunately, a series of recent dates in Europe have been rescheduled owing to the artist’s illness.  We at Lefort have been sending up prayers that Jamie T. has returned to health and is ready to take California by storm (if you will) on Tuesday (in SF at the Independent) and Wednesday.  Jamie T. has been rocking our world since we first laid ears on his first album.  We’ll be there at the Roxy.  Full force, front and center.  The last thing we want is another unused ticket to yet another legendary British artist.  Bring on Jamie T!  If you can still get a ticket, be there!

To get a feel, check out the just-released video for fantastic new single Rabbit Hole.  Superb vignettes.  “I’ll travel overseas….”  Please do, sir.
