I missed most of Flipfest in Saturday, Aug. 19, but made a point of catching the Shaela Miller band’s festival closing set.
Shalea Miller, always improves every time I see her. She dominated the stage as she sang heartfelt plaintive originals including old favourites like “Half Way in Love” and “Loving Me,” plus newer songs like “Cheating and Lying” plus a solid cover of Ernest Tubbs’ “Thanks a Lot.” which got a good chunk of the crowd dancing.
She had her excellent full band including steel guitarist Skinny Dyck, guitarist Evan Uschenko, drummer Tyler Bird and upright bassist Paul Holden.
