Olivia introduced the only cover of the set, I Drink by Mary Gauthier as one of her favourite songs, it is a haunting ballad that Olivia poured her heart and soul into, the deep emotional vocals and exquisite guitar feeding off each other, producing a cinematic landscape that pulled at the heart, a beautifully performed ballad that the audience loved.
After that emotional wringing, the tempo was lifted for the toe tapping Shattered Not Broken, Stefan got a good bluesy groove going on this one with a solid guitar solo while Olivia added a touch of feisty jazzy blues vocals. Introducing the next song Coal Into Gold, Olivia explained that it’s about the blues having the power to turn the coal of life into gold, this had a good dancing groove going with some tasty blues guitar alongside some deeper passionate vocals.
Closing the set with Howl, the stop start deeper bass line guitar rhythm worked well with the storytelling bluesy howling vocals. An excellent finish to a very good and enjoyable set, well received by the audience who appreciated the chemistry between the duo.
