It’s been a while since we’ve had a WOMADelaide in heat like this. Temperatures reaching in the high thirties had the crowd searching for any available patch of shade during the daytime, as they listened to the the excellent music on offer.
WOMADelaide 2018 kicked off with one of the most memorable opening nights in recent memory.
Towards the end of his set at the Trinity Sessions, Steve Poltz commented that no two of his gigs are ever the same, and you can see why. His performance a delightful journey that takes unexpected turns – even surprising the performer. But Poltz is such a natural on the stage that it all just seems right.
Somnium presents A Night Of Cream was a performance of raw and adulterated blues rock, that was not always pretty, but was never played in anything less than the true spirit of the original recordings.
Sexy, funny, awe-inspiring, moving and just damned brilliant, this show exceeded my expectations and then some.
If you haven’t seen The Choir Of Man’s show yet, make the effort to grab a ticket whilst you can. It is a show that you will find hard to beat for value, energy, and the sheer joy of that is encapsulated in the performance.
With such an impressive catalogue of well-loved songs, it’s probably time we had a Nick Cave tribute show. Doing justice to this legendary material, however, is no easy task. Thankfully, local group, the Dark Seeds are up to the task.
Fowler & Finn: A Tribute to Crowded House – The obviously talented Fowler Sisters have one more show to play during this year’s Fringe, and now, given an extra, distraction-free week to get the songs into better shape, there is every chance their next show will be much more successful than this one.
Wet Sounds plunges you into a sonic experience like no other.
