Jake Thistle -- Sky Blue and Black (Live on The Suki and Scott show)

Here's a little bit of a throwback for a good reason (I'll tie a few things together-- haha). First, I'm really happy to say that Emmy winners Sukanya Krishnan and Scott Stafford are back to doing the TV work they do best, and they've asked me to be part of an in-studio TV pilot they're filming on April 8th. I'm honored they thought of me for it, and can't wait to finally meet them in person. In honor of that, here's a clip from a previous appearance on their virtual show-- trying Jackson Browne's Sky Blue And Black for my first time ever on guitar. The crowd gathers for anyone living life without a net, right? haha.
Then right after that time in the studio, I'll head over to The Turning Point to be part of a great John Prine tribute that night. If you're local, you don't want to miss it!
And since I mentioned Jackson AND The Turning Point-- I'll also remind you about my show there on April 24th. That will be a GREAT time, and I hope some of you guys can make it. Cool venue, and if you like Jackson Browne, the setlist is going to be special.

I came upon you this video because I was in the mood to hear this song that I've loved so much since it came out in - 1995 maybe? What a lovely rendition you play! It's great to see a talented young musician paying tribute to one of the greats. Bravo!

A certified Jackson Browne classic, although Scott had never heard of the song! Lol. I’m impressed it was one of Suki’s favorites! Good on her! I also enjoyed reading the comments people made during your performance. Of course, another strong cover of JB, Jake, which you always do so well! 👊👊. I received my signed CD of Down The Line today, and I really appreciate it. It will be cherished, for sure. Thanks again and rock on! 💙👊👊

Great rendition! Dig it. Jersey represent. I left and won't go back, but the Jersey Shore left its imprint on my soul.

[@simonaslanian8807]

So much soul. Rare talent being fully free

[@markgirard5871]

It's sad that Sky Blue and Black is considered a deep cut. It's easily in my top five.

[@whiteman2371]

Well done Jake. Damn Jackson can write a song!!

[@bradL10000]

Wow nice job Jake, and very impressive how you performed that for the first time ever after she put you on the spot with that request out of the blue! Sounds great!

[@barbarascotto3873]

This made my cry. I am always blown away by your talent.
