Bringing the festival to a close for 2022, Austin, Texas, picker Janky – aka Scott Lindsay – turned in a cracking set that again had the theatre crowd howling for more as the night drew to a close. Backed by Denis Agenet and the excellent French upright bassist, Abdel Be-Bop, Janky comes from the Mississippi Hill Country school of blues but has a tad more standard blues blood running through his veins. The result was a genuinely surprising set that featured mostly his own work and writing, while managing to feel rooted in tradition.
