Gigs Are Like Buses...

...you wait for ages then three come at once!  Last night James and I had another date, this time to see British band Kill It Kid in Exeter.  I've loved this band for a couple of years now and I was lucky to see them live supporting Brandi Carlile back in 2009.  (Don't you love it when a band you already like are supporting?)  Their sound could best be described as delta blues/Americana mixed with a whole lot of rock.  Chris Turpin's vocals are fabulous, so much volume and grit from such a young person, combined with the smooth voice of Steph Ward it is just a delightful experience to watch these guys.  We got to hear a few new songs last night, I can't wait for the new album.  Here's the first song I heard from Kill It Kid, give it a listen:

On a side note, this morning I just bought tickets to see Gregory Alan Isakov who I've loved for a couple of years but hasn't toured the UK in that time.  I'm so excited that he's going to be playing at a teeny tiny cafe in Torquay, the next town along from me... I don't have to go to London to see him... and it's in an imtimate venue!  Oh, the wait until June shall be toruture.
