If you needed any indication that JD McPherson is one of a kind, let’s remember the fact that when he made his first album (2012’s Signs & Signifiers), he told his producer, “I want to make a ’50s psychedelic record!”

Since then, McPherson has done just that–and much, much more. In McPherson’s words, “It’s still a rock & roll record, but the borders are expanding a little bit.” McPherson has indeed combined rock ‘n’ roll, blues, R&B, and even dance music into a 21st century style all his own.

Earlier this year, his sophomore album, Let The Good Times Roll, garnered even more praise than his debut. Since its release, McPherson has largely been on the road, and on January 15, he’ll be hitting one of America’s most storied venues: the Fillmore in San Francisco.
