I'm reading the comments and actually getting mad at myself. I live maybe 5 minutes from the Saxon Pub where he has a standing gig and I haven't been a handful of times. What's wrong with me? Yeah, David is one of the all time greats and is loved in Austin. It's just weird that so many musicians have to go overseas to make a living. James McMurtry does the same thing. He has a standing gig at the Continental Club if he's in town and once again, I've seen him a handful of times. They tour the US and have well attended shows but they draw the bigger crowds overseas much of the time. At least that how it seems to me. I don't tour with them so I can't say for sure and the artist might tell me it's not like that. But David Grissom should be a household name! He is just so fucking good! Thanks for filming this and posting it! The pandemic is over and musicians are playing again so why the fuck am I sitting on my ass at home?
David put 20 years developing the PRS McCarty which transitioned into his signature PRS DGT model. 10 of those 20 years was spent gathering feedback and input from other players. 40 different pickup combinations were tested to get where they are today.🇺🇸🎸
Great show, glad I found this, such a great player. Love the jazzy runs on "Skimming The Surface" especially. I'm the lucky owner of a DGT - 2011 in Yellow Tiger (just like that one except with birds) and it's an awesome guitar. Just wish I had his fingers! ;)
679 views, i believe i'm responsable for half of those, 4 comments, one is mine (plus this one), i can not believe that, he's beyond great, tone, taste, originality, great compositions, fantastic improvising, everything one could ask, he has to be the most underrated musician ever!
my thoughts exactly!...so unknown, but should be a household word in the world for the talent he possesses. Some of the tastiest, nastiest, sweet mix of riffs in a bluesy, but fusion-y original creative stew...I love this guy!
I always loved the guitar playing on the Storyville records. I feel like an idiot for not having looked up the members before today. David Grissom definitely one of my new favorites. This should have a million views.
man this guy is good... awesome set, drums and bass too! This might be the best I've seen from DG..Tone is on point, chops are off the chain and his timing is perfect.
When I first saw German names like “Heilbronn” and “Schnuckelpferd” in the descrip, I incorrectly assumed this was a club somewhere up in the Texas hill country…

That's probably the best sounding PRS I have ever heard ... And what a guitarist !
Not a coincidence. Grissom has a nice cooperation w/ Smith, on expert level.
That's his signature model PRS guitar

I think I’m catching up to you. This is such a great video and I really appreciate the song markers.
No, you're wrong, half of the views are mine. :-) That PRS magic is awesome, especially in Skimming tha Surface jam. Just can't get enough.

High five, pal! :-))
PRS never lies, especially in Grissom's hands.
Grissom has an eclectic playing style. He’s the most interesting player I’ve come across in awhile, and his rhythm sections are top notch.
Ticks all the boxes for me- plays with a real swagger and swing and makes it all his own- fabulous!
Belly of the Beast solo Classic Grissom! Smokin'!

Talent, enthusiasm and spirit.
And of course: PRS never lies.
one of the all time greats as far as i know, thanks for posting, the best one i have seen so far...
Just awesome Guitarplayer!
Thanks for posting! 🎸👏👏👍
Seriously good!
Awesome show!!
I’ve only listened to a bit so far, but it sounds like both people in the audience liked it. An outstanding band for the lunch few who were there.
Lucky few, mr spellcheck

96 views? How is that even possible???? This is great. Thanks for uploading!. Are people going to the restroom behind him or something?🤦🏼♂️
I noticed that too lol, that good German beer has to go somewhere...
Wow...How is Bonamassa more popular than this guy?
he isn't to me and you.
Joe who?
Mellencamp didn't hate Bonamassa?
I gotta go practice some more.
What passes for love
that first PRS is tuned down a whole step giving him a super thick sound. I wonder if that is for his vocals or the thick sound.
I'll be stealing licks from this for at least a year. 👍
and good luck with the right-hand picking style btw! He is great, isn't he?
Was this Heilbronn Germany?
That kid’s got the devil in him.
tasty
Bass player played with.......forgot
