Burden of Paradise - Rosehill Theatre, Whitehaven, 17th March
Julie writes;
I can't recommend
highly enough Burden of Paradise
You all probably
know, I am a huge fan of Helen Watson, having worked alongside
her in Daphne's Flight and in our vocal workshops but I really wasn't preapred
for just
how blown away I would be when I went along to see Helen's new project on Saturday
night in Whitehaven.
The members of the ensemble are;
Snake Davis - legendary and highly
acclaimed sax player, his CV reads like a who's who
in the music buisness.
Dave Bowie - Fabulous Double Bassist
Mark Cresswell - The most exquisite
and tasteful guitarist I have seen in ages.
Helen Watson - The creme de la
creme.
The sound was like
a hi-fi, the material was so well chosen and it was executed with warmth, precision,
humour and
musicianship of a calibre that is pure gold. Dave and Mark provided a subtle
but solid platform on which Helen could pour
her honey like vocals over each song while Snake weaved in and out with delicacy
and beauty showing us why he has earned
the reputation of one of the finest sax players in the country.
I could effuse all night about how totally brilliant these four are but instead
I'll urge you to see for yourself. They are touring throughout April and into
May, miss them and miss out.
