We are delighted to welcom back a Cluny favourite to perform again. Jerron Paxton is one of those artists that words struggle to describe but here goes. His charisma & warmth make you feel at home, his wit and wise cracks will leave your sides aching and his musical ability will leave you in awe, but most of all a Jerron Paxton gig will take you on a journey and afterwards you’ll never quite be the same again. Buy a ticket for yourself and one for a friend, they’ll thank you afterwards.Growing up in Los Angeles, Jerron Paxton would sit with an ear by the radio, eagerly absorbing the nuances and history of Black American traditional music that connect him to his ancestral roots in the South. A songwriter, inheritor of tradition, and a walking, talking jukebox, Paxton approaches his craft with equal part wit and reverence, with a knack for leg-pulling and cracking wise. Things Done Changed is an album of original songs that sound beamed in from nearly a century ago, when jazz and blues were performed as a means of both personal and cultural survival. Lick by lick, Paxton builds a bridge between generations gone and generations to come, singing the heartaches and joys of the past and present.
