Concert review: Jelly Roll takes Calgary to church with entertaining, heartfelt performance

Summary

Nutrition label

48% Informative

It was a joyful, solemn, motivational, touching and occasionally corny spectacle, but was rarely boring.

The performer, born Jason Bradley DeFord , didn’t pound the pulpit per se, but it often felt like he was taking us to church.

Jelly Roll’s own healing journey involves drug-dealing, addiction and imprisonment.

First opening act Savannah Dexter , a pop-country singer from Florida , offered her own dose of love for Canada with a joyful cover of Avril Lavigne’s Sk8ter Boi.

Josh Ross was given more time to shine.

He sounds like someone who moved to Nashville a few years back to take advantage of the city's efficient star-making machinery.

Jelly Roll ended the concert the same way he began it.
