After attending Thursday's show at Neumo's, I have one name that comes to mind: Jason Webley. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum was the headlining band of the show, with Webley and Mute Socialite also performing.

Fans (L to R) John Cox, Alison Shaklee, Gorge Menese and Tiffany Laurin hanging out before the show.

There's no doubt about it that Sleepytime Gorilla Museum had spectacular visuals and interesting instruments, including, but not limited to the Glockenspiel. However, it was Webley's modest persona and catchy music that really stole the show.

He's a one-man band. With his accordion, his voice and his feet, he's got it all. And, in the case that he can't do it himself, he effortlessly elects the crowd to do it for him.

About midway through his set, while playing one of his songs off of the new album, The Cost of Living, he had half the crowd acting as violins while the other half took care of the brass.

During this music lesson he asked the crowd to use their imaginations while pretending to be different instruments because he thought his new music would sound better with an orchestra.

The whole crowd was involved.

Thursday also happened to be Webley's 10th anniversary in the industry, as pointed out by one of the fans during the show. However, Webley informed the crowd that next year, for his 11th anniversary, there would be a huge celebration.

His music has a great beat, he has a wonderful voice and he knows how to put on a good show. But, in case you missed him Thursday, don't worry just yet.

Jason Webley will be back in Seattle in late August at Fremont Abbey Arts Center for Monsters of Accordion, a tour that he organized where he will be playing with other esteemed accordion players.
