Nizlopi Live @ The Marr's Bar, Worcester. 19/5/07 Lauren Murrey (now Rogers)
Permalink   


Nizlopi Marr's Bar, Worcester. Crowd participation triumphs once again. Luke Concannon on guitar and vocals and John Parker on double bass and human beatbox are an impressive duo to behold. Improvising, even inviting one nervous looking fan on stage, this was a near perfect gig from two very talented Leomington-Spa musicians. Playing the first track slap bang in the middle of the audience got things off to a good start. Once on stage they mixed a couple of old songs from their debut album, Half These Songs Are About You, with a few unknowns and plenty of passion. Concannon is a magnetic frontman; telling stories and obviously enjoying himself. When he wasn't jumping and down, inciting the crowd to do the same, he was looking out at the fans stood in front of him, appearing genuinely pleased with what he saw. Extraordinary and Glastonbury - both tracks from the new album - were outstanding, as was the "Kanye West-inspired" number and a beautiful mellow rendition of the chart-topping JCB Song. Those who had never seen the duo live before watched in awe of Parker's incredible beatboxing skill. Everyone else left impressed and wanting more.
