Video | Listen: Gary Clark Jr. is bringing back that Blues Rock I need in my life. Watch.

If Cody Chestnutt and Lenny Kravitz mated, then somehow mated with Jimi Hendrix? Well, it might be awkward as fuck, but you’d also end up with Gary Clark Jr.

I’ve been watching him for the last few months and I’m loving what I see. Musically gifted in the areas of Guitar playing and Blues Rock appreciation, Gary is carving out his niche as dude who might bring Blues Rock movement back for real this time. He’s had my attention since he dropped his highly acclaimed The Bright Lights EP, but it wasnt until his recent spots at Coachella, his work with Nas, and on KCRW that made me intrigued. If you want more, head over to his website. They keep it stocked with tour dates, videos and more. Don’t forget the soundcloud page, and make sure you check him out at this years UCLA Reggae and Jazz Festival.

For now, listen to these tracks from his Bright Lights EP, and tell me what you think.

And you can never go wrong with footage from coachella.
