From his early days playing cover music behind chicken wire at a west side Jacksonville juke joint while still working at a lumberyard, to playing sold-out shows at some of the largest venues and music festivals in the world, JJ Grey has always delivered his soul-honest truths. Since his first album, ‘Blackwater’, back in 2001, Grey has been releasing deeply moving, masterfully written, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music.
Now, with ‘Olustee’ – his tenth album and first in eight years, and the first he has self-produced – Grey is back, singing his personal stories with universal themes of redemption, rebirth, hard luck, and inner peace. With his music, Grey also celebrates good times with friends, oftentimes mixing the carnal with the cerebral in the very same song. Fueled by his vividly detailed, timeless original songs spun from his life experiences, Grey’s gritty baritone drips with honest passion and testifies with a preacher’s foot-pounding fervor.
With ‘Olustee’, JJ Grey has once again pushed the boundaries of his own creative musical, lyrical and vocal talents, delivering an instant classic. Many of the songs are steeped in the mythical Southern stories of his ancestral Florida home and filled with people from JJ’s life. The songs are told through the eyes of a poet and sung with pure, unvarnished soul. Grey’s message is simple and strong – respect the natural world and always try to live in the moment. And never forget the importance of having a good time!

Ready for some funky music. Thanks
Man, I’m curious to see what he’s like live. I’ve never really gotten too “into” J.J. Grey & Mofro but I’ve heard Orange Blossoms and I’m definitely curious to the point where I’m over here entering a giveaway haha
Loves me some Mofro!!
This is someone (& band) I’ve wanted to see for years, and I’d greatly appreciate any help I can get!
Love JJ! Haven’t seen him in years, this would be a blast!
Been waiting to see them!
Would like to go.
Love this band
Jj grey is amazing! Saw him at after hours WBF years ago. Love his new album ♥️
JJ brings me back to the soulful swamp music of Florida. Love his music, good for my heart.
“Mississippi” was the soundtrack of another time in my life when I could plug in the Nano, pop the sunroof, and drive from Multnomah Village to the airport in the setting sun – without hitting a single light. Both a memory and a metaphor. Good times.
Rock! Swamp! Swamp Rock!
Yes yes! Swamp rock!
Front porch Southern SouL 🪕
this one would be so fun! love that floridian rock!
No one rocks harder!
omg i want to send my husband for his first fathers day!! we’re about to have a baby like tomorrow.
I think JJ and band are great, and it would be worth the trip downriver to see them if we win…thanks!
I am a HUGE JJ Grey and Mofro fan!! Been seeing them for over a decade all over the country but have not seen them in PDX. Would be amazing to see them at Revolution Hall. Thank you so very much for the incredible offer of free tickets. Cheers!
