Lance Stinson is gearing up for a string of Massachusetts tour dates. Stinson will be playing Lucky Dog Music Hall in Worcester, MA on Thursday, July 2nd and following that with back to-back shows at Loretta’s Last Call in Boston the 3rd and 4th. Ahead of his Boston dates, Stinson will have an acoustic set with his guitar player at Judge Roy Bean Saloon in Bristol, RI on Wednesday night.
When we spoke, Stinson was coming off of chat with students of Wentworth College Mass Communication class about social media. He was impressed nearly all of the students were fans of country music. Stinson is active on social media and says, "It helps build your fan base to where it's more of a grass roots kind of thing. It gives you the opportunity to interact with people that like your music."
Stinson has a distinctly rocking country sound. Of his sound, Stinson says, "It's a kind of country with a little of a southern rock edge. A kind of kick-you-in-your-teeth country." Stinson's sound came from both listening to the classics like Meryl Haggard, Johnny Cash, and with his father, while at the same time rocking out to likes of Jon Bon Jovi and Def Leppard with his older brothers.
When asked of his favorite writing partners, he counts Shane Minor, Rick Tiger, and Nate Canyon. His dream write, however, would have been with the great Keith Whitely. Currently working on song writing for his newest album, Stinson's enjoying playing new music like "Taillights and Dust" which is quickly growing as a fan favorite.
