Happy Mondays
I decided to head down to the Wonder Bar last night to catch the Happy Mondays set by Harper's Fellow. Despite playing to a crowd that may have been thinking a bit more about $.50 wings and $3.00 PBRs, they played a great set and were all smiles throughout.
Lead singer / rhythm guitarist Cortney Metzler has a beautiful and powerful voice that blends nicely with that of vocalist Yanell Reyes. The band's overall sound is neo-country / folk / Americana, I guess. Alex Ford (drums) and Brendan Smith (bass) lay a solid foundation, while lead guitarist Eric Castellazzo provides an edgy twang without ever crossing over into full-on country.
Harper's Fellow are in the process of recording their debut record, and I'll be on the lookout for that.
I brought my point and shoot with me again. Apologies to the band, but I think I may still need some practice.
