Two rising singer-songwriters, Joy Oladokun and Becca Mancari landed in Kansas City at The Truman to shed light on their own proof of life- growing up and coming out, religious trauma and hardships; and ultimately, their own personal redemption for coming to terms with their own identity and musically storytelling, each in their own unique voice.

The night began with Nashville (by way of NY and PA) indie folk singer-songwriter Becca Mancari, whose third solo LP Left Hand was just released last month (via Captured Tracks Records). boygenius’ Julien Bakerlent a hand to the new record, which shifts more pop in nature rhythmic shakers of the album’s lead single, “Over and Over” played early in the opening set, lyrically hearken back to an early phase of upbringing and coming out in a fundamentalist household of four kids and a pastor father.

More lush sounding and synth-driven on record, the live experience leaned more toward rock, though the highly personal lyrics hit home in any format, including those on the new “I Had a Dream” which unpacks more on the themes of identity, family upbringing, and religion.

Mancari joked in comparing the opener as a “substitute teacher” as a warm-up to the headline act, and asked if we were all having fun. Though not considered a country artist, 2017’s “Golden” sounded the closest to that genre and “Don’t Even Worry” (done in studio w/ex-Alabama Shakes’ Brittany Howard) was a late set highlight.

===

After a brief set change, the anthemic Miley Cyrus song “The Climb” was cued up as lights darkened and Arizona-born multi-genre (folk, pop, r&b, roots) singer-songwriter Joy Oladokun and band took to the stage for her headlining set, on this, her Living Proof Tour (named from the fourth full-length of the same name, out now on Verve Forecast/Republic).

Though not mentioned from the stage, Oladokun has partnered with PLUS1, so $1 from each ticket sold will go towards supporting gun violence prevention initiatives, one of several causes that have become close to heart for the artist. The set was off to a rolling, positive start with single, “Keeping the Light On” from the new record, then “a song about how much I hate change” fittingly called “Changes”.

The poignant “Taking Things for Granted” was intro’d by Oladokun simply saying, “This is about how no one came to my eighth birthday”, singing of swimming alone and making the point that trauma in childhood, can easily stay with someone all through their adult years.

She joked after, realizing she forgot “If You Got a Problem” on the setlist, so directed the band to go back and play it, and randomly (or maybe not so much, being in the BBQ capital) saying she wants to open a barbecue restaurant called “Risk It for the Brisket”, which elicited cheers.

The Neil Young-inspired “Sunday” was a 2019 early breakthrough, about her own religious trauma and being the kind of song that her younger self needed to hear. Her three-song solo acoustic set was among her favorite moments, purposely being unplanned and decided in the moment.

After mentioning how awkward it was for a Southern woman to recently compliment her as “handsome”, she ended this portion strongly with the depressing but real “Somehow” merged with an influential Jimmy Eat World hit, that is one of her favorites.

The Elton John cover was changed by having dramatic slow beats as its foundation (and also inspired by a certain herb) and that feeling continued into “The Hard Way” from the new LP, with Oladokun starting the song singing, “Jesus raised me, good weed saved me” and sang of the earned rewards of not taking an easier way.

Not afraid to wear her (late 90s/early 00’s) influences on her sleeve, the set would end with the Weezer-influenced, “We’re All Going to Die”- not quite the storytelling point-of-views of the Dawes song of the same name, but it questions in the same way, the way we never fully figure everything out before meeting our end.

The encore proved to be one of symphonies- both sweet and bittersweet, “Don’t start a riot or anything” she remarked, returning to the stage after rising cheers. Starting things was “Sweet Symphony” a song from the new LP about “how cute my parents’ love is”, also cheekily saying “Chris Stapleton couldn’t be here tonight, because of budget cuts”, mentioning the co-collaborator of the studio version of the song.

The night would end on a positive...err, joyful note as Oladokun would finish with the new “Look Up”, a song she said was “about the things that make life matter- the smell of coffee, dogs in sweaters, and Backstreet Boys songs” and the song itself would meld with the late 90’s hit “Bittersweet Symphony” before returning to finish with her last chorus and if on cue, some Backstreet Boys outro music to end the night as lights went up.

We♥KC! September 7-13, 2023 Upcoming concerts / shows (Kansas City / Lawrence, KS)

Read More: Janelle Monae For most attendees, this was their first opportunity to hear new tracks by the likes of Fratellis, Mazzy Star, Janelle Monae w/ Prince, Rudimental, and Bastille. …

Read more Kansas City Music Guide.

School is in full swing, and the record-breaking high temps are finally in the rear-view mirror for the season. More crisp nights make outdoor shows more ideal, and plenty of bands are touring before things get too much colder, so the next couple months can often be the time to see some of the best touring acts of the year.  Best thoughts going out to Caamp.

Let’s take look at the Kansas City / Lawrence KS metro musical happenings from September 7th-13th.

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 7

Cyrano de Bergerac, KC Rep (Spencer Theatre), Through Sept 24, $35-$79

Opening their 60^th Anniversary season with a bang (and Asian-featured cast/director!), the classic love triangle tale of a genius with language, Cyrano secretly loves the radiant Roxane, but she loves the beautiful-but-inarticulate Christian. Convinced of his own ugliness, Cyrano offers to act as go-between, setting in motion a poignant and hilarious love triangle in which each character is torn between the lure of physical attraction and the seductive power of words.

Written by Edmond Rostand and freely adapted by Martin Crimp, direction is provided by Associate Artistic Director Nelson T. Eusebio III, and runs 2hr 15min, with an intermission. The production features smoke, haze, and strobe lights, simulations of war with swords, prop guns, and sounds of war with strong language. For ages 14 and up.

Here Come the Mummies, Uptown, POSTPONED TO NOV. 12

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 8

"Ann Hampton Callaway and Liz Callaway - Broadway the Calla-way!" Pennway Place at Studio Dan Meiners, $100+

The Tony-nominated Callaway Sisters are bringing Broadway to Kansas City for HMCKC’s Evening of Note: 38 Below – raising the roof with their acclaimed New York City 54 Below Cabaret show, Broadway the Calla-way! Liz and Ann Hampton Callaway. truly become one singular sensation for a rousing NYC night of harmony, humor and the soaring sounds of the greatest songs of Broadway! With showstoppers from West Side Story, Chicago, Funny Girl, Cats, Carousel, Wicked and more great Broadway shows, you’re bound to enjoy The Big Apple from The Heartland!

Lemonade Social Fest, Sept 8, 9, $10-$20/day

Back for its fourth local music fest at Lemonade Park, it started in 2020 to help provide a safe way to uplift the KC music scene during the pandemic, and local record label The Record Machine is keeping the mission going. The fest opens at 7pm Friday with pop-rock trio LYXE, tropical pop band Surf Wax, as well as duo Static Phantoms and Dress Warm.

Saturday starting at 3:30pm will have eight acts in all, with psych-soul group Black Light Animals, local rapper Steddy P, and Mr. Golden Sun as a part of the lineup. Local rapper-producer Paris Williams, Lawrence singer-songwriter Paul Jesse, Flora, Ben Gipson, and Miki P & the Swallowtails are also slated to perform.

Cracker w/Bootstrap Boys, Sarah Shook Sept 8 and 9 (4pm), Knuckleheads, $25.

On the 30th anniversary of their acclaimed album, "Kerosene Hat,", alt-rock, Americana post punk legends Cracker takes over three stages on two nights. Friday’s schedule is: 7:00 -7:45 PM David Lowery / 8:00-8:45 PM Bootstrap Boys / 9:00 -10:45 Cracker while Saturday’s earlier start means: 4:00-4:45 PM Hickman Solo Set / 5:00-6:00 PM Sarah Shook and the Disarmers / 6:15-8:00 PM Cracker

Co-founders David Lowery and Johnny Hickman have been at it for over a quarter of a century – releasing ten studio albums, multiple gold records, several hit songs [“Low,” “Teen Angst (What The World Needs Now),” “Euro-Trash Girl” and “Get Off This”], and a worldwide fan base. Cracker‘s tenth studio effort, the double-album entitled Berkeley To Bakersfield, finds this American band traversing two different sides of the California landscape – the northern Bay area and further down-state in Bakersfield.

As Lowery explains, “On the Berkeley disc the band is the original lineup – Davey Faragher, Michael Urbano, Johnny and myself. This is the first time this lineup has recorded together in almost 20 years.” We caught Lowery solo and in conversation earlier this year.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 9

Janelle Monae, The Midland, $41.50-$91.50

Named after her most recent LP, The Age of Pleasure Tour just started last week in Seattle and the leg will wrap mid-next month in Inglewood, CA. The Age of Pleasure is Monáe’s follow-up to her 2018 LP, Dirty Computer, released in June via Atlantic Records. The 14-song record includes “Float” (which features Seun Kuti and Egypt 80), and “Lipstick Lover.” And even though, she moved to Atlanta a long time ago, we still consider the Kansas City, KS-born innovative artist, one of our own.

Band of Heathens w Lilly Hiatt, Sept 9, Knuckleheads, $20

Returning to their Austin TX roots on ninth studio album, Simple Things, The Band of Heathens returns to a more basic approach to the rootsy, guitar-based rock with which they made their name.

Though the members now live scattered across the country, coming back to Austin to compose and record was crucial to the making of the new record, which should be featured live, along with older favorites.

Lilly Hiatt has continued on the road following her breakout LP Trinity Lane and has since released a hanful of lo-fi singles (i.e., the almost-shoegaze “Angels Thing” and groovy “L8 Night People”) and Domestic Bliss, the self-titled debut LP from Hiatt and husband and fellow Nashville musician Coley Hinson, and the couple continue to join forces live.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 10

Black Country New Road, moved to The Granada-Lawrence, $22

This year, the UK rock act have released a live album and concert film recorded at London’s Bush Hall late last year. Live at Bush Hall followed Ants From Up There, which featured frontman Isaac Wood, who left the group soon after its release.

The band now performs an all-new repertoire written by remaining members Tyler Hyde (bass, vocals), May Kershaw (piano, vocals), Jockstrap’s Georgia Ellery (violin, vocals), Lewis Evans (saxophone, vocals), Luke Mark (guitar), and Charlie Wayne (drums).

NYC indie artist Daneshevskaya opens, in support of this year’s Long is the Tunnel release.

Gregory Porter, Kauffman Center, $47-$97

The acclaimed singer-songwriter was raised in Bakersfield, CA, and began singing in small jazz clubs in San Diego and later NYC where his music career began to ascend with the release of his first two albums- 2010’s Water and 2012’s Be Good. In 2013, he released his Blue Note Records debut, Liquid Spirit which grew into a phenomenon, selling more than a million albums and earning Porter his first GRAMMY Award.

His 2016 follow-up Take Me To The Alley won Porter his second GRAMMY for Best Vocal Jazz Album and established him one of the most soulful jazz singer-songwriters of his generation. In 2017, Porter released the heartfelt tribute album Nat King Cole & Me, and in 2020, returned to his original songwriting on the uplifting All Rise. 

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 11

 TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 12

Joy Oladokun w Becca Mancari, Truman, $20-$40

The Arizona-born multi-genre (folk, pop, r&b, roots) artist continues out on her Living Proof Tour, (named after her fourth full-length of the same name, out now on Verve Forecast/Republic) headlining after spending some of the season opening for The Teskey Brothers and Noah Kahan. Oladokun has partnered with PLUS1, so $1 from each ticket sold will go towards supporting gun violence prevention initiatives.

Live, she plays plenty of her own, as well as works in covers from the likes of Jimmy Eat World, Phil Collins, and is getting more known for her version of Elton John's "Rocket Man".

Arrive early for rock/country singer-songwriter Becca Mancari, whose third LP Left Hand was just out on August 25 (via Captured Tracks Records). Lead single "Over And Over" definitely leans Pop though. Congas and shakers share space with guitar riffs to give the whole thing a polyrhythmic bounce, with Julien Baker lending backing vocals to the chorus.

Caamp, The Midland, CANCELED  Update: Caamp (@Caamp) / X (twitter.com)

Ohio folk favorites (and on one of our favorite labels, Mom+Pop) hit the road for a summer tour, playing multi-nights in bigger cities as well as many festivals, out in support of last year's Lavender Days release. The album quickly sprung to the top of the Billboard charts with opening positions in the Top 10 on 4 different charts, including Americana, Alternative, Vinyl and Indie and Top 20 positions on 7 charts total including the Billboard Top 200.

Lavender Days features Nathaniel Rateliff and (KC resident) Waxahatchee's Katie Crutchfield on vocals and their previous full lengths - their self-titled 2016 debut, 2018's Boys and By and By in 2019, have helped their growing fan base. Live, they've been working in covers from Dr. Dog, Fleetwood Mac, and Neil Young.

UPDATE: remainder of 2023 tour dates now canceled. 

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 13

Jai Wolf, The Truman, $25-$60

The Bangladeshi American electronic performer/producer has a new single, “(I Dread The Day He Takes You To) Paris [feat. MYRNE, and inspired by Taylor Swift's song of the same name],” all as part of a new era he calls “Blue Babu – a new journey beginning with a demonstration in the desert, followed by an analysis of consciousness transcribed into sound,” also via Mom+Pop following his debut album, The Cure to Loneliness.

This “Blue Babu” era marks a return for Jai Wolf, starting with the recent release of his first official single in three years, “Want It All” featuring rising pop sensation Evalyn, complete with AI-created music video. Last June, he became the only Bangladeshi-American artist to sell out Red Rocks as a headliner and collaborator MYRNE as well as EVAN GIIA join him on the road.

Maisie Peters
with Grace Enger
at First Avenue
first-avenue.com

Maisie Peters (01 Mar 2022)

British pop star Maisie Peters has the #1 UK album for her sophomore album The Good Witch. She is the youngest British female solo act since 2014 to claim a #1, and the youngest artist to claim a #1 since Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour.

We caught Peters in Mar 2022 and said, “English singer/songwriter Maisie Peters sold out the 7th Street Entry, on the first night of her first US tour. In fact, she’s been selling out all of her shows, this is probably thanks to her 100 million streams of her single, “Worst Of You”. ”

Grace Enger (14 Oct 2022)

Grace Enger to open. We Enger on her very first tour in Oct 2022 and wrote, “Enger opened the all-age show with a crowd huddled in close as she sang with guitar in hand, starting off with “Me and You” followed by “Bad Guy.” She then sang a cover of Wheatus’ “Teenage Dirtbag” before someone in the audience asked when she would be releasing her first E.P. That was still a secret. She was just happy to be on her first tour, but she did sing a possible song from the anticipated release, “Neighborhood.””

Opener Meyadi is aka Carmen Dieker and a violinist and multi-instrumentalist
