Interview with B John Burns After His Set At The Brew

by Joshua (J.Smo) Smotherman June 2, 2012 10:00 am

B John Burns

As we pulled up to The Brew we could hear B John Burns pouring his heart and soul into the streets of Manchester. When we stepped out of the car, I could feel the energy pulling us into the building.

After Mr Burns finished his song, he began telling some amazing stories about his experiences as a songwriter over the past few decades.

Each song had a great story to go along with it and he even mentioned that he could write books of stories about the 5,000 or so songs he has written during his adventures.

He mentioned a fantasy of coming down to Manchester and guys in T-shirts walking in during his set. He imagined these guys being Bonnaroo scouts… we didn’t mean to disappoint him, but we are with Middle Tennessee Music and we really felt the B John Burns experience.

Check out the videos below and visit www.BJohnBurns.com to find more information and music.

The only negative part of his performance was the lack of people packing out The Brew to experience his story.
