 If
you have a chance to see Travis Tritt in concert
- this is one concert you don’t want to
miss! I recently had the opportunity to see
Travis Tritt perform at the Trump Taj Mahal
casino in Atlantic City, NJ.
In these days of high tech, extravagant, and
sometimes talentless shows, it is refreshing to
see and hear an artist who is so talented, that
he can command the stage and entertain an
audience by simply sitting on a stool in the
stark darkness with just one spotlight on him,
playing and singing his heart out to some of the
most beautiful hit songs ever written and
recorded. With vocals so rich and comforting, I
felt like I was in pure heaven, as he sang some
of his greatest hit songs including “Tell Me
I Was Dreaming,” “Can I Trust You With
My Heart,” “Best of Intentions”
and more! I felt like I was sitting in a
comfortable chair in a living room with a fire
crackling in the fireplace, hanging out and
listening to Travis Tritt playing guitar and
singing in this intimate setting.For the more rockin,
and/or honkey tonk songs such as, “Country
Club,”
T-R-O-U-B-L-E, “The Whiskey Ain’t
Working,” and one of my all-time favorites,
“Here’s a Quarter (Call Someone Who
Cares),” I felt like I was in Billy Bob's in
Fort Worth Texas, rather than being in the less
intimate arena that I was actually in.
Ironically, I looked at his tour date schedule
and found out that he actually is going to be
playing at Billy Bob’s coming up shortly!
(Nov. 23rd) So for all you out there near the
Fort Worth area in Texas - be sure to catch his
show!
This man just reeks talent! Performing for two
hours, not only is he a talented singer,
multi-hit songwriter, and exceptional guitarist -
he also has some pretty cool, unique dance moves
too. All of the musicians in the band did a great
job. Some members of his band have been with him
for the past 20 plus years! He really inspired me
as a songwriter to keep plugging away writing,
recording, and performing for the sheer love of
it!
I am happy to announce that Travis Tritt’s
new CD, entitled “The Calm After” is
now available. Check out his website at www.travistritt.com

daughter, Tyler Reese is making her debut on the
CD singing with Travis on the Patty Smythe-Don
Henley duet, “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t
Enough.” There is a you tube video of that
on his website as well.
