They were in fine form, playing their original post grunge flavoured originals for maybe 15 brave souls who braved the cold to support local talent. They played my favourite, ‘Money Tree,’ and most of their CD ‘Nova’ then branched out into a bit of reggae, then some mellower fare, which segued directly into an amped up version of Motorhead’s ‘Ace of Spades,’ and something which sounded like ‘Melt with You’ though I couldn’t be sure due to a poor sound mix.
Another local act, The Darby and Joan Club put on their usual set of mesmerizing modern ambient rock in the style of Radiohead. bassist Silvana Campus sang some haunting harmonies and laid down some pretty cool bass lines. And while the band’s songs sometimes sound very similar, they have a way of enveloping the audience.
They ended with a couple of uptempo numbers.
