Kelowna based musician Devon Coyote returned to the Owl Acoustic Lounge to play a solid set of original music for a good sized audience, March 14.
He began with an extended instrumental, which he began by looping a mellow acoustic chord progression and then playing a soulful, blues tinged solo over it.
He carried on in that vein for a while, then switched guitars to a Weissenborn, on which he played a eerie version of Neil Young’s ‘Ohio,’ with plenty of haunting slide.
He switched to a 12 string for a couple songs, then back to the acoustic. Sometimes he’d just play and sing, other songs he’d stomp out a rhythm on the microphoned box he was standing on. He ended his first set by looping another acoustic riff and playing over it.
