Gig reviews:
Next was the highlight for me, Kevin Pallot and his new band. With keys, a fiddle player, bass and drums, Kev has found his sound and it was an awesome display.
Kev's vocals are a cross between Eddie Vedder and Ray La Montagne and his lyrics are always personal and heart-felt. This band give a new dynamic and there were some truly goosebump moments, especially when the fiddle player weaved in between some of Kev's more belting vocals. One to watch and of Jersey's crop of singer-songwriters, I think the most marketable act on the scene.......watch out Nerina Pallot (no relation).
