JJ Grey<\/a> is known for his soulful Southern rock, which he’ll bring to the Vilar\u00a0Performing Arts Center<\/a> Wednesday, Feb. 6.<\/p>\n

Grey will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. as part of the Vilar’s Underground Sound concert series with his band Mofro and opener Commonheart<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Currently on tour across the West coast, Grey looks forward to returning to Vail. In the past, he’s performed at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater<\/a> as well as at several local festivals.<\/p>\n

Although he now plays large venues like The Fillmore<\/a> in San Francisco, Grey is happy to return to his roots at the Vilar.<\/p>\n

“I love it,” Grey said in reference to performing at smaller venues. “I like it when crowds are right there. It’s great playing bigger rooms, but there’s something to be said about the crowd being right there so close.”<\/p>\n

Although Grey describes himself as “the world’s worst salesperson” when it comes to describing his music, he refers to it at bluesy and soulful. However, it’s not just about the music for Grey.<\/p>\n
