Location : Howlin Wolf New Orleans, LA
Coooooooope is back! He was rocking the boots, slick back hair, and of course stone cold look. Clarence Greenwood is as chill as they get, and that's why we love him. Playing two hour long sets to a sold-out crowd, he was glad to back in the Crescent City. In support of his latest release, One Lovely Day, which was released back on July 17th, Citizen Cope is in the middle of his 47-date North American tour. 47 shows, no big deal.
The last time I saw Citizen Cope was in Brooklyn at Mercury Lounge back in Spring of 2009. I was front row center and have been a big fan ever since. Greenwood delivered another superb show with, I believe, some new members in his band. After the Rain Water LP in 2010, I didn't think the man could write another five-star record, but boy was I wrong! Monday night in New Orleans, he kept everybody moving and hands waving in the air. My favorite tracks of the evening had to be "Bullet and a Target" and, of course, "Healing Hands". The DC native delivers a powerful message in his music and has got plenty of soul.
