Plume Giant

I bought thee tickets to see the second band on the bill, Alpenglow. Wow! They were great. Their recording, Solitude, does not do them justice. Their sound is a complex layering of rhythms and an absolutely golden thre part harmonies. Underneath it all is a bass that thunders just enough to get the music inside your bones. These are a talented bunch, that make new use of age old instrumentation including banjo and harmonica. Great sound great vibe!

After a lively and energetic warm-up set from Tall Tall Trees, Plume Giant rocked our world - each song, new or old, brought such beautiful and joyful energy to the entire crowd. New arrangements and special guests made the show into a Callithump extravaganza! Such a wonderful night.

Plume Giant presented a thioughful, beautifully crafted, musically rewarding performance. People who came out to hear the show, waited until midnight to hear the Plumes, and were enthusiastically responsive throughout. While it was an album release show for their new CD, Calithump, The Plumes played some even more recently written songs, each more beautiful than the last. Woven throughout the session, various musical guests were invited to join in for a song or two, including a string trio, a clarinetest, a trumpeter, and the band Tall Tall Trees. It was a joyful and memorable celebration of Plume Giants work to date. Looking forward to future shows.

Plume Giant is an absolutely incredible group, whose songs are characterized by intensely beautiful, interesting harmonies. If you ever have the chance to see them, it is an absolute must!

Amazing show! Wonderful musicians and wonderful music. Had a great time.
