🔊 Tonight's Encore performance by Jesse Daniel features honky-tonk country! If you missed Daniel in October, check out a little background information below before you get listenin' 👇

"Jesse Daniel has a story to tell, and there’s nothing quite like honky-tonk music for delivering tales about life, love, and hard times. At just 30 years old, he’s had a rocky journey and done a lot of living and learning, imbuing his music with a striking honesty and authenticity. With a strong foundation in the Bakersfield sound of his native California, Jesse writes classic country songs with heart and grit, marked with a rollicking, hard-driving sound all his own."

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” ❤️ Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!

Just a quick two hour drive or train ride north you can find the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial located in Washington, D.C. 🚘

From the National Parks Service website: "The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial is located in West Potomac Park at 1964 Independence Avenue, S.W., referencing the year the Civil Rights Act Of 1964 became law. The memorial’s official dedication date is August 28, 2011, the 48th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, though the ceremony was postponed until October 16 due to Hurricane Irene.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Baptist minister and social activist who became a notable figure during the U.S. civil rights movement from the mid-1950s until he was assassinated in 1968. He played a pivotal role in ending the legal segregation of African American citizens in the U.S., influencing the creation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, among other honors.

King's memorial is the first to honor an African American individual on the National Mall. The space is a place to contemplate Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy: a non-violent philosophy striving for freedom, justice, and equality.”

To learn more about the memorial, visit nps.gov. And if it’s been a while since you’ve taken a road trip to the District, maybe plan a day or two and visit the Memorial of one of America’s most pivotal and influential historical figures. 🙌🏾🙌🏼
