Live Concert Review - Jack Johnson - Blossom Music Ceter - 6.17.08 By Nathan Veale Published: June 20, 2008 PrintEmail
It’s been a pretty incredible decade for Jack Johnson.After taking the music world by storm in 2001 with the mellow attitude, acoustic guitar strumming, and socially conscious lyrics of that year’s ‘Brushfire Fairytales,’ it’s been a steady ascent to stardom for the surfer and filmmaker.He quickly found himself playing some of the biggest amphitheaters and concert halls in the country, taking his tour worldwide, headlining huge festivals across the globe, and going platinum several times over.Seven years later and little has changed for the 33 year-old Hawaiian-born son of a professional surfer.He’s married to his college sweetheart with whom he has a two year-old daughter.His fourth full-length studio album, ‘Sleep Through The Static,’ debuted at #1 on the charts.He’s still mellow as can be, and he’s once again embarked on a tour of huge amphitheaters, which stopped in Northeast Ohio Tuesday (6.17.08), at Cuyahoga Falls’ BlossomMusicCenter.
