It’s always a pleasure to hear girls who sing like angels.
So I was glad I joined approximately 30 people at the Lethbridge College Cave, 
May 16 for the last half of the Lethbridge Folk Club’s presentation of the Winnipeg trio Sweet Alibi featuring Amber Neilsen,Jessica Rae Ayre (lead vocals, guitar, harmonica) and Michelle Anderson (electric guitar/banjo/ background vocals) plus bassist Alasdair Dunlop and drummer Jake Bell.
Neilsen sang most of the lead vocals for the part of the show I caught.
The other girls added gorgeous vocal harmonies.
They also told heartfelt stories about their lives. I arrived as Neilsen introduced a song called “Pickup” about hitchhiking when she was 16 and getting into a strange man’s pick up truck.
The song proved to be one of the show’s highlights. Jessica Rae Ayre told a story about being sober for three years and played some fine harp for a song spoke about playing in a blues band and being sober for the past three years.
Throughout they effortlessly switched instruments while Michelle Anderson played some beautiful ukulele which she passed it on to Neilsen for a number.
They got the audience to sing and clap along for a couple of other songs.
