Durham’s The Jackets started their second week of residency at Motorco with a “rehearsal” for about 50 people that was more live show than practice. The Old Ceremony’s Django Haskins opened and later joined The Jackets for an encore performance of Johnny Cash’s “Get Rhythm.” Check out the video below.
Turns out, brushing up on its chops is not something The Jackets need to focus on. Sunday’s performance showed the country-tinged band in fine form as they prepare to enter the studio to begin work on their debut record. Guitarist John Teer also proved he’s got more skills than playing fiddle and mandolin in Chatham County Line as he ripped some blazing solos during the hour-plus set. Check out an interview with The Jackets that ran on TVD here. The band continues its residency throughout January with shows Sundays at 2 p.m. and on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. Click here for more information.
