Actual review on Local Music Blog:-
"A strong, clear voice delivering a set of excellent songs... nothing pretentious here, just really good songs delivered with assurance and energy."
Set-up usually takes around 40 minutes. I would usually aim to arrive at a venue around an hour before show-time, to allow for plenty of time for loading-in and getting set.
