Mason Jennings event
One of the very few local stars who can (and does) bounce between the State Theatre and the 400 Bar for gigs, Mason Jennings is probably best-suited in the middle-ground territory at First Ave this time in support of his bold new album, “Blood of Man.” More than just Jennings’ “plugged in” disc, the album piles on the distortion without losing any intimacy or evocative lyrics. Actually, songs like “Pittsburgh” and “The Field” are his most harrowing ever. Opener Nathanial Rateliff is a young Denver songwriter newly signed to Rounder Records. Chris Riemenschneider
Price: $20
