The Audreys
The Audreys are a South Australian band, and are best described in their own words taken from their website. “Country twang delivered with the smokiest of vocals, rolling roots and authentic banjo and violin picking.” I didn’t really know what to expect from The Audreys. Well what a great band they are. Taasha’s vocals are outstanding and well complemented by the mix of instrumentation used by all the band members. There were a couple of problems with the mixing, and the lighting was pretty standard, but suited the style of music.

Kate Miller-Heidke
The vocal acrobatics of Kate Miller-Heidke is something that should not be missed. The talent (and I mean TALENT, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, know what a mean) of this opera trained singer really shines through when she is on stage. No recording can ever do her true justice compared to her live performances. The lighting was superb, mixing was faultless, and to top it all of a costume change as well. The full exploitation of The Tivoli’s stage, curtains, lighting and props, including the use of a disco ball, made this concert a concert to remember. Highlights of the night for me included, “Blah Blah”, “Australian Idol” and Keir Nuttall’s song while Kate was off stage changing into another beautiful dress.
