I'm not quite sure where I first stumbled across Zaska, but I'll take a guess that it was another one of those glorious Twitter finds. It doesn't really matter, I'm just happy I did!
I'm not 100% sure how to describe his music. I've heard people call it soul, neo soul, funky, jazz... I call it sexual. It makes you move, it makes you feel, most of all, it makes you smile, it's a thing of great beauty. Does that make sense to you?
Anyway, on to tonight's show in the Sugar Club, Dublin. I like this venue, I like shooting in this venue, the lighting is always good and so is the sound. Plus, and this is a big plus, there are seats!
Zaska never plays alone, so, along with his band, tonight he was joined tonight by the wonderful Melina Malone on vocals. Melina is the vocal equivalent of Zaskas music. It's rich, creamy, smoky... filled with soul, just beautiful.
All in all, an absolutely wonderful night of soul music. I can't recommend Zaska highly enough. Go see him perform the next time he's gigging, you'll not be disappointed!
Now for the photos and even a video!
