Hello and a belated Happy New Year.
After a pretty barren 2014 music wise I have decided that this year I will go to a few gigs.Last night,accompanied by my daughter I saw First Aid Kit at Newcastle City Hall.
It was an excellent gig, good venue for the vocal harmony soft country rock they play.The light show was impressive.Support was from Kimberley Anne who wad good in a Joan Armatrading, Tracy Chapman way. The audience was a mix of young bearded hipsters, old uns like me and young professionals.What you'd expect really.
They played their cover of Simon and Garfunkel's America and my own favourite, their own song Emmy Lou.
All in all I had a great time. No new ground was being broken but to hear good honest well played and sung music is always a joy. Next up for me ,unless something else catches my eye, is Placebo at O2 Academy
