Case Oats at The Waiting Room

I have been longing to see Case Oats live since their debut album, Last Missouri Exit, came out last year and I fell in love with its folky, lo-fi charm. I finally got the chance last night at The Waiting Room, where they treated us to lots of tunes from that record and a bunch of new ones too, as well as a fantastic Neil Young cover, so I'm happy to say they lived up to all my expectations and much more.

What an amazing evening seeing Jeff Tweedy tonight with a youthful band that features his two sons and their friends and showcased his last solo album, the fabulous Twilight Override. Honestly still on a huge high from this one and it's made me remember just why I have always loved Tweedy's music so much!

Katie Crutchfield and her incredible band returned to London for their biggest show to date at the historic Hammersmith Apollo and wow, did she manage to fill the grandiose venue with beautiful sounds and such good feeling!

I'm happy to say that seeing Waxahatchee almost ten years after the first time was an absolutely delightful affair, everything about this show was lovely, from the cool, appreciative and kind audience to the joyful performance, Katie Crutchfield's incredible voice and her killer band.

Tweedy at the London Palladium

"Tonight we're going to be playing songs from the album I've recorded with my son, Spencer," said Jeff Tweedy at the start of the show tonight, "then I'll play some older songs on my own and after that, well, who knows! I might re-enact scenes from The Lion King!" And that pretty much sums up Tweedy's appearance at the London Palladium: new songs, old tunes and lots of funny chat from the man himself. Jeff's quips and good-humoured banter with the audience may seem run of the mill stuff but given that he used to be incredibly grumpy on stage and even used to start fights with the crowd (the first London Wilco show ended in a punch-up I'm told) it's actually one of the best parts of the show.
