The Janni Lee band played a more sedate set of soulful blues at the Slice, March 1 for approximately 40 people. Janni Lee sang beautifully as always with her huge, soulful blues, while her band nailed a solid groove and stuck to it.
I didn’t recognize a lot of the set. They turned blues classic “Hoochie Coochie Man” into “Hoochie Coochie Girl” though but still sounded great. There was some excellent guitar playing.
“Hug Me, Kiss Me” was a highlight as was “That’s the Way I Feel,” which they ended their set with.
