Acoustically Speaking: Sunday 25th September



So...Sunday!
Acoustically Speaking was brilliant! We had Delicia Edgar, for the first time, gracing the stage with backing and accapella!

This is when you know how talented our artists are: when they say they have a sore throat, hot liquid, croaking, but when they get up, belt out shocking numbers and rock the stage. Clarissa!

Stevie Blu was the legend that is... enough said.

Taking us on the journey of relationships, Jay Alonyo shared a few pieces and made up a song on the spot! 

Talking about poetry, Alan, improv poet, was given the subjects: Cacti, Water and Hope. I just want to say, skill and bravery! 

We cannot fail to mention Sarah Drizen, either. Imagine a bank holiday afternoon, sitting in a park with a small but beautiful lake, willow hanging into it, then a gentle breeze seems to kiss your cheek. Sarah's voice is like that breeze. I'm not even exaggerating.

Rosie and The Glass Balloon! Like the audience members were saying, there is noone like them! I think "different" is a perfect word. I heard one lady comment that it isnt just the random, humorous, sweet lyrical content, the music itself is really really good! I agree!

All in all, fantastic!
 

 



Acoustically Speaking- Sunday 21st August

We were upstairs!! Hosted by Kocoa Brown and Kayo of AG Fly, this Acoustically Speaking was monumental!

Jay Alonyo picked up a guitar for the first time with one of her quirky musical offerings, as well as reciting words of beauty.

This time we had, for his first ever performance in front of an audience Michael! Its opportunities like this which are at the heart of Acoustically Speaking- a platform for hidden talent, which we all know is out there! he was fantastic- well done!

The evening definitely felt deep and powerful with Stevie Blu and the tones of a BV who was brought centre stage- Andrew!

After all of the events of the past month, it was brilliant to see what Croydon has to offer, from its young people, for the future. Acoustically Speaking definitely stepped up as a banner for its beloved home town.

May it be a spot for talent, young, developing and seasoned.

Now, I'm saying this with all seriousness, because I know who is performing next month.  BUY YOUR TICKETS EARLY BECAUSE ITS GOING TO BE PACKED!

Acoustically Speaking, Sunday 25th September!!

Acoustically Speaking- Sunday 26th June 2011

We had a fantastic night!

This episode of Acoustically Speaking was in the Scream Studio's Showcase Lounge ( Downstairs). We tested this out for the first time and it turned out to be fantastic, not only because we could have more candles!

We were treated to a first ever performance by brother and sister duo- Simon and Joanna. The room was dazzled by their growing, yet amazing, talent, so far!

Just when you thought they couldnt get more diverse, Rosie and The Glass Balloon played a truly acoustic set, adding another facet to their diamond performances, to date!

There was a refreshing poetic offering from Mrs. Jay , Elaine Joseph.

And we had a smooth dessert offering by Stevie Blu.

If you weren't there, I'm not going to lie- you missed out!
