SANDY DENNY PROJECT
Musician Pub May 14th 2023
We all know and love the songs and voice of the Lady... the late great Sandy Denny don't we ...This Sunday afternoon brought a real treat to The Musician Pub in the form of the wonderful The Sandy Denny Project... 6 musicians with a love of her work... Sally Barker, Marion Fleetwood, Gemma Shirley, PJ Wright, Mat Davies, Mark Stevens... who combine to make a simply wonderful band.
This is not a tribute band, they do not do straight covers of Sandy's music, but interpret the songs to perform them in their own style, but always maintaining the feel and integrity of the song. The performance covers Sandy's career with the Fairports, solo, and even a song left by Sandy but unrecorded by her... This was a simply wonderful concert... the lions share of the vocals were handled by the wonderful Sally, but Marion, Gemma and PJ also took some lead vocals. Whoever was taking the lead, the vocals were beautiful, the harmonies spot on and the musicianship terrific throughout... this was a simply wonderful performance...and included probably my favourite Sandy song (Fotheringay from Fairport days) and ended, of course, with the magnificent Who Knows Where the Time Goes... just the introductory chords to that have me moist eyed!!!
Fabulous afternoon!!
keep music live... keep music real... support you local venue
