JEREMY ENIGK, DAMIEN JURADO, BRYAN FREE
(Dante’s, 1 SW 3rd) The seminal touchstones of Jeremy Enigk’s career have been pontificated upon enough by the popular media to fill volumes of post-punk tomes. However, the relevance of his larger umbrella of output allows for Enigk’s regular citing as a major musical entity since Sunny Day Real Estate’s demise. After the initial hiatus of SDRE, Enigk’s release of Return of the Frog Queen reminded longtime listeners that it was his fearlessness to embrace a wide-ranging cadre of rhythmic influences and ethereal spirituality that made his past projects so unique. The subsequent solo releases of World Waits and The Missing Link only furthered the allure of Enigk’s brash sentimentalities in a scene that could have swept him under the proverbial rug, had it the broom to follow through. His live shows are unmitigated inspiration, and he’s showing absolutely zero signs of slowing down. Score one for all of us. RYAN J. PRADO
