Concert Review: Keller Williams


Keller Williams wasted no time last night at the Tralf in showing his versatility by opening the show with three songs that exemplified his live performances. On stage were two acoustic guitars, a drum machine, an electric guitar, and a bass. Along with a grab bag of smaller instruments including an assortment of bells, Keller played each instrument and looped them all together to form a new age sounding song. He even provided his own backing vocals. He then moved onto "Sugary," a Jerry Garcia cover, which got a good reaction from the crowd. This was then followed by one of his own acoustic songs.

Williams was always moving on stage, not even content to relax between grabbing instruments and instead playing air guitar. He was interactive with the crowd from having them wave their arms to singing along with him to a song of mostly swears. The crowd was a sea of bobbing heads enjoying Williams' funky style and an early highlight of the night was a funky cover of Cage the Elephant's "Aint No Rest For The Wicked." This was a classic show for Williams which showed why he is famous for his live performances.
