Rob Lindsey – is it a guy’s name, or an exhortation to steal things from women? Alas, this mystery will probably never be solved. But Art Bar got a few clues Saturday night when the big, bearded songwriter brought his acoustic tunes to the stage.
Currently between projects (read: has no band), Rob Lindsey performed a short set in support of headliner American Gun. His manner and subject matter kept with the holiday evening’s “Valentine’s Heartbreak” theme as he reeled off images of melancholy love stories.
Between songs, Lindsey murmured a few words to the crowd. His speaking manner was witty and self-deprecating, which followed the tone of his songs. (Example: “Yeah, so here I am solo at Art Bar. Story of my life…”)
Each tune seemed intensely personal to him, almost like he was singing pages from a lover’s journal. A particularly strong example was the American love odyssey “I Miss Nashville”, which recalled the epic sweep of Jack Kerouac as Lindsey carried his listeners from the southeast all the way to San Francisco.
