X's for Eyes

The Mynabirds are an amazingly talented band. Their performance was very entertaining. I had never been to Rough Trade before this show but I would definitely go back. It was a good venue. Laura's voice is so beautiful.

The entire evening was outstanding. I had not seen Kenny Wayne Shepherd for years and was very glad I got to see him. I won't miss him again when a show is in or near Kansas City

I saw Killcode for the first time a few years ago. My BFF & I were ready to leave, when the music of this incredible ROCK band stopped us in ours tracks! We have rarely missed a show date since! Their music only gets better and better. Their energy on stage from start to finish is stellar! Tommy's amazing voice draws you in and keeps you there, with the rarity of slick dance moves, he keeps the ladies interested. Erric's vocal growl and intense Bass keeps the thunder rolling with Rob Noxious on drums (shirt off ladies), and the crazy good dueling guitar licks by Chaz and DC Gonzalez. And they carry some pretty awesome Merch! This band is a MUST SEE!

Was a great show and performance by Grieves as usual and for him to be in Houston.

Tilly and the Wall put on the best show i have ever been to. there was so much amazing energy and a lot of interaction! I got a hug from Neely and she recognized me from when i saw them open for She & Him two days before. it was unforgettable and everyone should see them!!!

This was an outstanding show to help kick off a headlining / solo career. Small venue, good lighting, decent sound mix. Most memorable, though, was the connection with the audience. With family members in attendance, there was a relaxed interplay as the band moved through most of his debut full-length CD, and those songs were well-represented live. This was my first opportunity to see Nic live, and was impressed with the combination of professionalism and spontaneity -- a tough mix to get right. Musically, the band was airtight, which allowed for considerable leeway in the vocal delivery on songs he's been playing to audiences for the last year. It is difficult to pigeonhole the band's sound (or the songs), as has been discussed widely in the press. While definitely country-based, there are also elements of urban Atlanta hip-hop, Allman Brothers, and (somehow) large dollops of reggae influence. Those of us who tend to be irritated by most country music can likely find a safe harbor here. The sole cover tune, Free's "All Right Now" was a nice, well-executed surprise, and showed the versatility required to pull off a classic rock standard. One nice offering was an original (written earlier that day) accompanying himself on ukelele - simple, but even in its basic form it sounded worthy of inclusion on his next release. It is always a fine tightrope walk trying to appeal to both genders, but Nic manages to be both attractive and non-threatening (it seems part of his personality, without an excess of scripted showbiz schtick). After the final song, the band brought their acoustic instruments into the middle of the crowd -- (great move) -- and unleashed a show-stopping unplugged Caribbean medley, further connecting with a sing-along "One Love"-fest. Opener (and childhood friend) Brian Collins delivered a tight, enjoyable set, and joined Nic's band for a couple of tunes, including the acoustic love-fest wrap-up. Excellent show -- definitely worth checking out. In the meantime, the "Hard Headed" CD gives a good slice of Cowan's style and songwriting skills.

WHAT A GREAT WAY TO SPEND NEW YEARS EVE! OPENING BAND BONG HITS FOR JESUS WAS GOOD, OCTANE WAS BETTER, BUT THE OPENER KID FELIX WAS THE BEST!

Bosnian Rainbows played the most amazing show ever on Halloween! It was a completely unique and profound musical experience! Teresa Suarez is so cool! I shared a hug with her which was so awesome! I got to see Omar as well, but I didn't ask him for a picture or anything. It was overall an amazing and perfect experience. Sonny Kay was there, and so was Cathy Pillow from Sargent House! It was such a good show, and the music was brilliant! I had a lot of fun! Peace, Love, and Blessings! -Paul

This defines the best for country-folk or Americana as it has developed over the past 5 years. Sarah is a delight on stage and gracious with her fans following the concert. She sang and played old favorites as well as new material from here most recent album. I especially like when she play "Build me up form the bone" which is my beloved's theme song for us. We may be in our 60's but Sarah and her performance brings out the life and lifts the step. The Birchmere is an excellent venue for this performance, Food and Drinks were fantastic.

She is amazing and very charismatic on stage! She sounds very much like Karen Carpenter!
