Dreamy Music on a Friday Night

In Sydney on a Friday night live music rarely has dual highlights however last night in Sydney Friday the 8th of July Art Vs Science the very impressive trio from Sydney were rocking the Enmore whilst down the road Seeker Lover Keeper played the first of two sold out Sydney shows.

And I was at the latter, Seeker Lover Keeper. Now the talent on stage was spectacular:

Sarah Blasko - Terrific, a star, a great catalogue of popular Aussie music
Holly Throsby - Australia's most under rated singer songwriter and quiet the beauty
Sally Seltmann - One hell of a song writer and not bad on the vocal either!

So yes with all this talent on stage it was hard to go wrong.

The girls all bonded well and seemed like they were having an awesome time! It was all Sarah's songs first including my fav "Light all my Lights", such a stunning song (see clip below).

All the songs from their debut were just sublime with the touching 12."Rest Your Head On My Shoulder" almost bringing me to tears with Sarah's beautiful vocals and Seltmann's terrific words.

"Even Though I'm a Woman" was a crowd fav and nice to see Throsby have her moment to shine after years of making amazing and awesome tunes.

They finished off covering one of each others tunes and then altogether with a Stevie Nicks song "Wild Beast".

An amazing night at Sydney's most spectacular venue for this style of folky, singer songwriter showcase evenings.

I just hope and pray these girls stay together for a long time because together they are unstoppable and simply magic.

5 over talented and flawless stars to Seeker Lover Keeper at the Factory Theatre, Marrickville. They play again tonight to a simply sold out crowd.
