This show really surprised me. I’ve never been a Chocolate Cake fan. Not that I didn’t like them – just never grabbed me. Saturday night good friends Leanne & Campbell (bagpiper man you’ve seen on stage with us) shouted us down to Caravan Club to see said band. It was a sit down performance too (not what I’m used to). Needn’t have worried. The show was a riveting affair. David Bridie’s voice thoroughly captivating, a distinct timbre & delivery. Unique – as was the entire band. I’d recommend you see My Friend The Chocolate Cake, especially if they’ve passed you by on radio. There’s a depth & power in their live show which tells a much bigger story. One of my favourite gigs for the year so far.

Many thanks again, Leanne & Campbell.

Fires out.
