Presented by City Winery and Gibson Guitar, Katie Hamilton Shaffer met up with musician JJ Grey of “JJ Grey & Mofro” for a soulful Airstream Session at BottleRock Napa 2015. Alongside the acoustic jam session, Grey shared insight into his new album, what music means to him and the causes he is inspired by.
When he isn’t touring, Grey exerts his prodigious energies on the family land, a former chicken-farm that was run by his maternal grandmother and grandfather. The farm boasts a recording studio, a warehouse that doubles as Grey’s gym, an open-air barn, and of course those 50-odd pecan trees that occasionally require Grey to go airborne with his sprayer.
