Top 5 Reasons You Want to See Jerrod Niemann in Grand Junction

Singer-songwriter-arranger Jerrod Niemann is making his way back to Grand Junction, and you will most definitely want to be there. Here are five rock-solid reasons why.

This awesome concert featuring Jerrod Niemann is only a week away. That's right, it's coming up Tuesday, February 18, at Warehouse 25sixtyfive Kitchen + Bar. This isn't the first time Niemann has made his way to Western Colorado. You may recall seeing him a few years back at Country Jam.

Jerrod Niemann is one of my favorite contemporary Country artists. In addition to his skill as a performer, he's also an excellent song-writer, arranger, not to mention something of a music historian.

I've had a chance to hang out with the guy a handful of times, and he's a riot. Don't forget, he's from our neck of the woods, sort-of. Niemann was born in Harper, Kansas and raised in Liberal, Kansas. Off the top of my head, I can only think of five Country artists from Kansas to be signed to record deals: Martina McBride, Logan Mize, Joe Don Rooney, Chely Wright, and Jerrod Niemann.

Looking back, I believe the last time I saw Jerrod Niemann in concert was a few years back at Fiddler's Green while he was on tour with Keith Urban. That was a KILLER show.

Why should you set aside an evening and fork over your hard-earned dollars to catch Jerrod Niemann in concert? Here are my top five reasons why:

He has written or co-written three songs for Garth Brooks: Good Ride Cowboy, That Girl is a Cowboy, and Midnight Sun.
He lists his influences as Lefty Frizzell, Keith Whitley, and George Strait
He is a real start-to-finish kind of guy. Do you recall the song "Lover, Lover." Take a listen to the backup vocals on that track. All of those voices are Jerrod Niemann. He told me once he put down nine different vocal tracks.
He thinks of himself as a "music historian" more than anything else. In my opinion, we could use a little more of that in today's Country.
This entertainer puts on a "fun" show, with lots of tribute selections.

Jerrod Niemann is making his way to Warehouse 25sixtyfive Kitchen + Bar next Tuesday, February 18. This is an all-ages show. Tickets are a steal at just $15 in advance. Ticket prices will go up the day of the show. The opener for the show will be Western Colorado's very own Williams Brothers Band.

This is going to be a great show. A pair of tickets would make an excellent Valentine's Day gift.
