The concert featured two singer/songwriters, Cole Stacey from Devon and Stephanie Lambring from Nashville. Cole Stacey sang recent and earlier songs with a gentle, lyrical approach. By contrast, Stephanie Lambring, with a powerful voice, sang a variety of songs, mainly on sad themes, but some with refreshingly unusual subject matter and interspersed this with a humorous and friendly manner, making a quirky mix. They performed separately but went on to perform together for the encore which was greatly applauded. It would have been good to have more of this combination.

Interesting review - I was there and it was an amazing night!The best gig I've seen in that setting for along time in terms of quality of original material.
ReplyDeleteIm certain Cole & Stephanie played nearly all their own songs so the "Cole sang recent & earlier songs" is completely inaccurate and incorrect!
I've seen this young man a few times and as ever his performance was nothing short of brilliant.
Stephanie was a joy,"mainly on sad themes" seems not really to do justice to the subject matter of her songs. All in all an great concert of it's type from two wonderful songwriters, it's just a shame about the review!
