The Klatt from Minneapolis

I'm hanging out with some friends, having some drinks and listening to records and all of a sudden, the sweetest, chillest, bluegrassy tune starts to play on the old audio-technica.  It's Jack Klatt and I'm immediately intrigued.  His album Shadows in the Sunset is one to check out. 

Part balladeer and part bluesman, Jack is a dedicated songwriter and finger-style guitarist based in Minneapolis, MN. His unique sound defies genre with influences that pull from a wide range of American music. From Rhythm and Blues and early Rock N' Roll, to country and folk music Jack brings his unique voice to all of his songs. In the word of Americana Roots UK "Jack doesn't rely on other writers for his diversity, he can write in pretty much any musical style of his choosing." He's won recognition from the MN state arts board, recorded alongside "Spider" John Koerner, and made it onto Daytrotter's list of best songs in 2014. His 2016 release "Shadows in the Sunset" has been praised as "an eminently satisfying, slow rolling, Country/Blues album" by No Depression and made it onto Saving Country Music's list of 2016 essential albums.
