Judah & the Lion
Promoting the May 2017 release of their sophomore album, FOLK HOP N’ ROLL, Judah & the Lion played to a packed house at Showbox SoDo. The young and mostly female crowd sang and danced to every song enthusiastically.
I first covered Judah & the Lion when they opened for Kaleo last year. During that show I could see how talented they were, and I knew they would be going places. I enjoyed them almost as much as I did Kaleo. Since then, they have tightened up their performance and they now deserve to be the headliner.
As much as I liked their music, I loved their message. Judah grabbed the stage and stated, “No matter your background, not matter your religion, or your political beliefs, you are all welcome here.” That was so refreshing in the uncertain global political climate.
