Georgia June & The Flowers - The Lansdowne 11th NOVEMBER

Nov 13

Sunny and blue skied wednesday afternoon welcomed The Flowers and Georgia June to the Lansdowne hotel in Sydney’s’ Chippendale. The Flowers opened to set the scene for an afternoon of easy listening and good music. The room filled, each attendee being welcomed by the impressive vocals of Aggy from The Flowers, calming but also captivating all who entered.

Live music has changed drastically. With all those in attendance required to be seated. The silver lining here (for the crowd), being a greater intimacy with the music itself. But less people means less going to the artists… I am just glad we can begin to support local Aussie acts once again, as much as we can.

Georgia June followed. With the room now full, we were all eager for the hour ahead. From out-of-this-world synths, to catchy melodies – Georgia June set the right mood for any setting thanks to their wide variety of sounds. Every song being performed with love by Georgia, having presence not just on the stage, but of the entire room.

A lot of their songs being odes to love, life and loss. It was refreshing to hear raw and visceral subjects being discussed through their lyrics. Growing older, the demands of life, and the hidden beauty in life, are themes that all featured in their performance. Creating for a memorable show.

With some epic guitar dispersed throughout the show, and a dynamic keyboard/synth soundscape, Georgia June are good for any occasion. Be it a quiet afternoon or a Saturday night boogie.

And, yes Georgia, we definitely enjoyed dancing vicariously through you. A big covid-safe hug back to the both of you - Georgia June and The Flowers.
