Jay Farrar - History at the Old Rock House.


On June 17, 2010, at his sold-out show, local Alt-country legend Jay Farrar gave a short talk about Devil At The Confluence before playing his song Outside The Door from his album, Sebastopol. The song's lyrics include a number of historical St Louis blues music names and places and Jay realizes that the long proud tradition of St Louis' strong musical heritage is sadly under-recognized. Devil At The Confluence hopes to change that and welcomes Jay along with many of the city's other talented current artists to the cause. We spoke with Jay not long ago and that and other interviews will be posted. More to come on the local artists that continue the St Louis Confluence tradition soon.
