Brandi Carlile played the Varsity Theatre this weekend. Two sold out shows, of which I got to see the second.
Brandi Carlile is one of the most exhilaratingly beautiful performers today. There is no one I've seen more and there is no one I'd want to see more. This was my fourth Brandi Carlile concert and yet again (here and here) I was blown away. There aren't many words to describe and there are no words that can contain the power of her voice, her presence and her music.
On stage she had the twins, per usual: Tim and Phil Hanseroth. Their harmonies are so beautiful. They are more than Bud Scoppa, all due respect, painted them to be in his recent Paste Magazine article on Brandi – er the drummer Matt Chamberlain. Because of a finger injury, Brandi had Gibb Droll play guitar. He was incredible.
We had a large group of folks from the Sem.

All good things.
