I saw damien at the casbah in san diego. I was the only one there. There were some drunk marines at the bar making noise and one of them got sick at the bar so out they went. I sat in the middle of the floor and he asked me what I wanted to hear and I told him just play circus. strange it was a sunday night. that will never happen again

This rendition of Beacon Hill is like a punch to the gut. Beautiful and haunting. There's no doubt in my mind that Damien Jurado is one of the most gifted songwriters of his generation.
I saw Damien Jurado with Mewithoutyou about 5 years ago at the Musica in akron. It was my first time even hearing of him. After his performance, i went right over to his merch table and bought two of his cd's. His songs make me feel more at home with my self, and i gain more perspective on our world and humans.

Table Top Joe I saw him on that album’s tour. Unwed Sailor and Pedro the Lion opened for him, and all three bands had the same members (apart from Damien, who only performed during his own set). It was an amazing show, and it was very cool getting to see David Bazan reunite with his former bandmates, Jonathon Ford and Damien Jurado.

I only chanced upon DJ in 2016 when I heard QACHINA on Radio 6 in the UK. I'd been listening to the soundtrack 'Searching for Sugar Man' by Sixto Rodriguez in my car a lot, and when I first heard QACHINA i was bowled over. as it seemed to come from the same bubble if you like. So now I'm catching up on more of DJ's back catalogue, and this stay at home recording is just ace amigos...

It never dawned on me that Richard influenced two of my favourite artists who could very well not even know of eachothers existence...
