Fingerprints, located in Long Beach, is an awesome record store that hosts in-store performances of bands that are releasing new music. This weekend I was fortunate enough to see Josh Ritter perform an intimate set at Fingerprints. His set lasted for a good hour and he played almost every song from his new album, along with some of his older music. On stage was just Josh Ritter and his acoustic guitar. Who can ask for anything better? His voice was just as pure as it sounds on the recordings, if not better.
If you're a lyric-listener like me, this album is a must buy. It is very raw and soothing to listen to. I pre-ordered Ritter's new album "So Runs The World Away", release date being May 4th, in order to secure my spot for the show. As a result, I received the vinyl two weeks early and got it signed by Mister Ritter!! Yup. I met Josh Ritter. He is THE nicest guy you will ever meet. His smiles are endless. He has a beautiful mind with a beautiful soul. Really great way to start off the weekend. (:
