Concert Review: Wes Scott Serves At Brooklyn Music Kitchen

Playing at Brooklyn Music Kitchen, Wes Scott felt like the epitome of vulnerable. The space is super intimate and like any artist, starting out, you sing to people having a beer, a chat, and maybe some dinner. You are before a crowd that really did just come to eat, and yet, you have to serve them your music. It is the funnest, more fear filled moment of your life because your audience can, literally, pass you on their way to the bathroom.

 I think what I liked most about Wes Scott was that no nerves could take away his story. In truth that is what his songs are: sweet tales filled with the intrusive thoughts and inner world of someone that you passes you by everyday: on the way to work, Trader Joe´s, or the park. There is something so banal and basic to descriptions of life that make is majestic. He is not here to rock boats as much as just sail them, look at the sky, and come back to port to walk home. Again, that sounds basic or plain, but the truth is that is our life… plainly wonderful. 

As the tiny crowd gathered around, Scott smiled and sang tracks that could very easily line up with artists like, Alexander 23: people with style and stylings that make daily life feel like a page from a storybook, and the protagonist may not slay dragons or have a super dramatic character arc, but they are alive and they really want to know how to live happily.
