Returning for the first time since opening for Rayland Baxter in 2019, Illiterate Light brought their headlining tour to The Sinclair last Saturday night and once again left us all better for having attended.

This dynamic duo of Jeff Gorman and Jake Cochran, known for their DIY ethos and top-of-throat rock anthems, continue to redefine the indie music scene—and their own style—with their electrifying performances. Their recent show was no exception, showcasing a blend of raw energy, heartfelt lyrics, and an engaging stage presence that had every one of us singing, dancing and already eagerly awaiting their return to the area.

Caiola (AKA Jordan Caiola) opened the evening with a rare full-band performance and certainly gained a large group of fans as the Mo Lowda & The Humble front man’s solo project was front and center for all to take in. The solo venture, which really took root during the isolation of the pandemic, will find the talented singer-songwriter releasing his sophomore effort on August 2nd of this year.

The short tour with these two powerhouses is over, but if you’re lucky enough to be in the area when either one comes through, just buy the ticket. You won’t regret it.
