Under the Moon



Saturday was largely spent in a beer and sun haze of Olympic Park, £68 got us in the see a phenomenal line up of awesomeness. Haim, 3 chicks with dicks sisters smashing up electric guitar and Bass- I have seen their name before but never listened to them. They were pretty cool. After that Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero’s- my household been obsessed with this nomadic hippies for quite some time now and honestly, this was who I really came to see live. They were incredible they have some a presence about them and a way with them, which really wanted to make you grow dreads and venture around the world with some sort of bizarre musical instrument trying to find your inner peace. They are incredible artists and I would recommend watching them wherever they are, hell, follow them around the world. You certainly won’t be sorry. Ben Howard graced us with his soulful salt water baby melodies I have always wondered when the surfing culture would spore another ambassador after Jack Johnson, he is the answer to that query and he was even more phenomenal live. Ben Howard is one cool cat! The rest of the festival was awesome and Olympic park was put to great use baked in sunshine, beer and sweat what a great day! Here are some great songs from our beloved hippie clan. (can’t believe I haven’t posted something from them yet) Sorry!

Illuminating



Tuesday 12 March 2013- this day will haunt me for the rest of my life. I had heard this buzz about The Lumineers, by the time I heard their first song 'Flowers in Your Hair' I was addicted, I was hooked I wanted my fix and I wanted to see these guys live. I searched up and down for tickets but the Brixton show was sold out. 

Thank you Lord, for a good friend who happened to be able to hook me up! My word!! My life changed. Seeing them live was mind blowing, the entire audience, the entire time, was engrossed and hanging on every single note and every single word. The Lumineers. Changed. My. Life! If you get the chance please go watch them. They made my heart so incredibly happy. :)
