Marina Del Ray are dressed in their finest matching shirts and ties and despite their jokes it seems unlikley that they had made their way from evensong to the cosy confines of this bar. I could be wrong but they do seem to be a very knowing troupe!
And they are absolutely excellent as they draw an audience to the stage to smile at their slick playing and snazzy songs. The songs are seamless with no space between them as if they are determined to squeeze in as many as possible into their thirty minutes. The sound spirals up and down, the intimate singing and literate lyrics demand close attention and raise smiles around the place...uplifting and energising!
And they sound like? Sorry, can't pin them down. Marina Del Ray are so focused, so tight that they demand bigger and better. It can only come. In the meantime they vare welcome as a blue sky day and summer warmth. Irresistible.
