Brett Wiscons Wants You to “Stay” and Listen to This Jonasay Song
The singer/songwriter reveals his favorite song you've never heard
Singer/songwriter Brett Wiscons tells BlastEcho his favorite song you’ve never heard:
I had the pleasure of seeing Jonasay open for my favorite band Hootie & the Blowfish on two separate occasions in the early 2000s. I was immediately impressed by their songs. They were a mix of everything I loved about music — strong vocals and harmonies, great lyrics, and excellent musicianship. They reminded me of Gin Blossoms and also had a Hootie vibe. I was a fan of this East Coast gang.
And If You Like This, You'll Love...
Their 2002 album Spare Dimes for Dust is still in rotation at my house and on my iPod. “Stay” is the opening track to a stellar 11-song set. It kicks off the record in righteous fashion — the harmonies are on point and a fantastic guitar riff is featured in this tightly constructed, three-minute pop gem.
They were one of those bands who seemingly were poised for a big break, but for whatever reason, it didn’t materialize. It’s a shame because, in my mind, they deserved a wider audience. Maybe they’ll get one now.
