Street Voice UK

First off this review is a little different as my lens packed in and very few photos of the main act and none of the support act.

After arriving at KK’s I was surprised to find the gig was being held in the smaller room. I was expecting them to play in the larger room but ticket sales were low!

That blew my mind to be honest but not surprising seeing the poor turn outs at other shows.

Soon it was time for Canadian artist Madisson Galloway to hit the stage. I really didn’t know what to expect but I was blown away when Madison, her keyboardist and drummer were strutting their stuff!

Songs like Hatebirds and River really grabbed my attention.

Madison’s take on Roots/Rock needs to be heard. The delivery is second to none and the emotion coming from Madison’s voice just has to be heard!

Be sure to catch her live over the next week!

As soon as Madison Galloway came off stage it was time from The Commoners to set up. Once tht was complete this 5-piece kicked off their set!

They were like a lovely explosion from the moment they hit the stage!

I couldn’t believe how great this Canadian rock band were. I can safely say The Commoners are one of the best bands I’ve seen this year and I don’t say that lightly either!

The vocalist and some times guitarist really is a front man to be seen. I don’t think there was anything he did wrong! Then the lead and bassist really were at the top of the game. The drummer really blew my mind and the keyboardist added to the charm of this band.

The acoustic song was on a completely different level with so much emotion packed in to one song!

For a hour or so I felt like I was on a different planet. There was so much emotion poured into that song to be believed. One of the best acoustic numbers I’ve ever heard!

The audience were enjoying themselves but I felt sad for The Commoners playing to a small crowd but boy did they play their hearts out!

I recommend you all go and see this Canadian rock band play live.

They’ll blow your mind in a good way – I Promise!

Thanks to Peter at Noble PR for sorting everything.
