Renowned studio whiz and indie singer-songwriter John Vanderslice played a powerhouse solo show, charming the crowd in the Creative Loafing Space with candid chats about his childhood in Florida, a phone conversation with his mom via speakerphone and performances with locals Susie Ulrey (Rec Center) and Alexander and the Grapes. He performed tunes from his 2011 release,
White Wilderness
(Dead Oceans) and a handful of older tunes from his 12-year-long solo career.
