As I arrived late I only got to see Liam Griffin’s last song. Since the gig I have listened to a few of Liam’s tracks on his MySpace and I am a bit disappointed that I didn’t get to see more of Liam’s set. Liam list of influences is pretty awesome: “The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Jeff Buckley, Coldplay, Miles Davis, Silverchair, Radiohead, The Dears, Arcade Fire, Rufus Wainwright, Elbow, Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, Muse, Gomez, The Shins.” Check him out if you are still interested.
Tara Simmons
Tara Simmons has an interesting sound that combines, acoustically driven cello and keys with bits of pre-recorded electronica from a laptop. The result is a lot better than that description might lead you to believe, however still odd. Ballet was probably the highlight song for me. Not really my sort of thing, and I probably wont seek Tara out on her own, but I wouldn’t avoid her if she was a support.
Performance 6
Technical 7
Kate Miller-Heidke
Pretty much the same show as last night, same set list. But the whole show just seemed to be better, don’t know if it was the atmosphere as both shows went on sale at the same time. See the previous review for set list. Kate gig has one drunken heckler which she handled like the professional that she is.
Performance 9.5
