It not often we find ourselves puzzled in the shifting elements of music, like many of us we are solely focused at hand with what we call the popular artists or bands that give us the unparallel mental enjoyment of their music.
Sometimes to discover new uplifting music, we search deep into the bowels of the internet to explore our cravings and find those new or breakthrough artists’ ready to enchant the world with their music and one of those fast rising rockers is Ohio Native musician Kurt Deimer.
We forget how quick some artists’ quickly make an impact with not just their music but adding an actor’s role into the mix can make you stand out above and beyond just a normal recording artist.
With an outstanding EP and a tapestry of a list of major tours this individual has been fortunate enough to ride the golden ticket on, it was a solid two years ago I had my first enchanted experience of Kurt’s band opening for Geoff Tate former front man of Queensryche, thought okay let’s give this guy a solid chance and see the potential he has, I was impressed then and thought hope this guy and his band come back around again a 30 minute set wasn’t enough then and he should be a headliner at some point going forward. Luckily enough once again having a rare opportunity to see Kurt Deimer a second time come back around seemed to be nothing short of stellar as he opened for a co Headliner show with Skid Row and Buck Cherry at the Keswick Theatre,
A well seasoned musician and his second time around was even better then of two years ago, the energy and stage presence was truly rock solid, not sure if it was the same tour band from the previous show I covered.
Even with six quick songs including his version of Pink Floyds’ “Have a Cigar” definitely made my evening complete.
I’ve always said the lesser known Artists or bands that come out of left field and ride out some of the best tours as a direct support make a strong musical presence much like Kurt’s recent show at Keswick Theatre.
