Those who weren't there for High Note's first Acoustic Showcase at
St Bon's missed out on an excellent musical treat.
Jimmy Blowsheen from Trowbridge regaled us with a set of powerful
and heartfelt songs - look out for Jimmy, he's very well worth a
listen. Jimmy was followed by Rich Maya from Bath - raw emotion,
lyrics that tugged at the heart-strings, some very tasty guitar
work, and a vocal delivery that had the audience captivated. Jimmy
and Rich will both be featuring at the BARSSFest Main Event on
22/23 September.
The night was topped off by the performance of Mr Love & Justice
from Swindon, fronted by singer-songwriter Steve Cox. Again
excellent original songs, leavened by a couple of familiar covers.
The sound produced by the vocals and guitars of Steve and Nick
with inventive and well-matched percussion from Brendan even had
some people dancing at times! We look forward to their return to
St Bon's before too long.
