Local singer songwriter Dave McCann and his band the Firehearts played a great show for a dismal turnout at the Slice, June 4.
They deserve full houses but seldom get them in Lethbridge.
While I missed the first set, his second set included some of his better known older songs like “Unfamiliar ground” songs off his most Recent CD “ Circle of Light” including “ Beautiful Road” and several new songs.
McCann and the Firehearts ( bassist Pete Loughlin, guitarist Dave Bauer and drummer Tim Williams) always play superbly.
McCann switched to electric guitar for a couple of songs, but usually stuck to acoustic and singing.
Bauer played some perfect slide guitar solomon a couple of songs while Laughlin held down the beat and mugged for the audience. They ended their second set with “Mexican Sparrow.”
But they came back for a more upbeat third set including more McCann favourites like “ Road To Cain.”
