Troy Shoreland @ Boom Pony, 3/6/13

It is extremely hard to put into words how much I love Troy's music.  His lyrics inspire me to write beyond any other music I've ever listened to.  The reasoning behind this is because his lyrics are inspiring and uplifting.  They give hope to those who might have had a bad day or might have heard some bad news over the course of the week.  

When I listen to him play, my worries melt away.  That's one of the goals of a singer, I think...I'm not a singer by any definition of the word--I do sing but not professionally--but I think one of the goals for any musician is to captivate the audience and make them forget their worries for an hour.  Troy accomplishes this tenfold.  He lives his lyrics.

Troy played at the Boom Pony tonight, which is owned by Kiran Sporg and Andi Karsin.  The venue is always changing, and always evolving.  Each season Kiran thinks of a new theme and builds around it.  This time the Boom is a beach venue complete with a separate sim where you can go surfing.

If you've never heard Troy Shoreland or The Follow, make sure you join their group and keep track of them on Facebook.  Troy and his band are NOT to be missed!
