Gleefully crowning itself with the New Orleans funk crown last worn by the legendary Meters, PaJohn “Papa” Gros’ debut CD, Day’s End, described by Keith Spera (New Orleans Times-Picayune) as “bits of Leon Russell, Dr. John, and Little Feat plus a whole lot of John Gros” is a promisingly fresh look at New Orleans music.
Day’s End, honored as New Orleans’ Best New Orleans Roots Rock CD of 2004 (Times-Picayune), introduces New Orleans music lovers to “Papa’s” colorful songwriting while featuring his funky piano and gritty, soulful voice. Swamp blues, Dr. John-ish piano, Louisiana rock-n-roll, heartbreak ballads, and even a Cajun waltz highlight these musical gems. Gros “pulls the different strains of New Orleans music together similar to the way the Radiators and the subdudes do.” (Gambit ) And that’s good company. John “Papa” Gros is the sound of New Orleans and New Orleans music. Available as physical CD only 1. What's The Matter? Part 2, #35 2. When That Evening Sun Goes Down 3. Day's End 4. Roll Away 5.
