SXSW 2023: Jason Scott and The High Heat

Playing the Revival Stage before Sir Woman and Wild Child is this band out of Oklahoma City.  NPR describes their music:

the album represents a melting pot of influences: the heartland sweep of Tom Petty, the story-driven Americana of Jason Isbell, the nostalgic hooks of '90s country music, the sharp songwriting of James Taylor, and John Prine's lyrical mix of cutting insight and laugh-out-loud humor. 

That link has a live performance on KMOT.  It's a good set. Probably more mellow than they'll play at Luck Reunion.  His voice reminds me of Steve Earle. The second song in that set, "Sleeping Easy", is great.

This is a little more rocking.
