In the late afternoon sun, on the Boots & Hearts Front Porch Stage, Jess Moskaluke wowed the crowd with her voice, hits, and new music. The 2014, 2015, and 2016 Canadian Country Music Association Female Artist of the Year was on fire from the jump.
The Saskatchewan star had a pumped up crowd at the stage in the trees, and she didn't let them down, as she kept the energy high and the good vibes flowing. It was a love fest from Drive Me Away all the way to Cheap Wine And Cigarettes, with sing alongs, dancing, and a whole lot of appreciation for the Canadian singer.
One of our favourite cheers of the set came when Moskaluke announced that she'll have a new album in November of this year - which means fans will have new songs to learn and sing along to the next time they see her up on stage. One of those new songs, Kill Your Love, is already becoming a fan favourite on country radio and during the live show, and another, Save Some Of That Whiskey, has been tapped as the next radio single from the upcoming album.
Note: Jess Moskaluke pulled double duty on Sunday, stopping in to perform on the SiriusXM popup stage in the VIP. And the hundred or so lucky fans that got to see the performance got a stripped down sound that shows off her chops in a different, but just as amazing way as she did on the Front Porch stage. We were lucky to be there, it was awesome.
If you've seen a live Jess Moskaluke show before, you know a few things...
1) There are going to be some covers. And at Boots & Hearts we got to hear Chris Stapleton's Parachute, Maren Morris' 80's Mercedes, Ed Sheeran's Shape Of You, and TLC's 90s classic, No Scrubs.
2) There are strong and awesome bromances on stage. Check the pics below for a little proof.
3) Jess Moskaluke continues to get better. Show after show and year after year, this is a performer who grows and gets stronger. It's pretty awesome to see.
So, get yourself ready for new Jess Moskaluke music soon. Stay tuned to see if she will win her fourth consecutive CCMA Award for Female Artist of the Year at the 2017 awards show on September 10 in Saskatoon. And keep singing along when you hear her hits on the radio!
