I like ice-cream... I mean, I really like ice-cream, but you know what makes it better? Something with a bit of a crunch, something of a different, a harder texture, something like a wafer or a biscuit!
If you made it this far, you're probably wondering what the hell I am on about, well, let me explain.
I'm a big fan of Sive and Emma Langford, I love their music and really enjoy the live shows. It's always a wonderful, relaxing night of music when you go see them play. Tonight, as part of Live at the Local: Naas, they are joined by FeliSpeaks, a powerful, spoken word / poet, the crunch to the ice-cream, if you will...
Was the gig any good? It most certainly was. Each artist performed their own work and that was always going to be great. But what raised the bar was when they all performed together, whether that be Sive and Emma adding beautiful harmonies for FeliSpeaks as she recited her poetry, or when FeliSpeaks added her prose to Sive and Emma's songs to create additional verses. It was all very powerful.
So yeah, that was it. Normally, around about here I'd say something like 'Now for some photos', but, as the gig was being recorded, I was kindly asked not to take any photos, so I didn't. No problem, their show, their rules, I just kicked back and enjoyed the night!
If you get the chance to see any of these artists perform, take it. If you get the chance to see all three perform together, jump at it!
