Damn! She’s got some legs!

[@rogerbowen5753]

They've had a great tour. Hoping their reputation grows and more word spreads. They're bigger than these venues and deserve so much more.

It frustrates me that a band this good are only able to really play these sort of venues yet you get some absolutely awful acts selling out arenas. Just can’t wrap my head around it.

[@rogerbowen5753]

@@GMACF1 I know what you mean. It's the strange state of the business right now. There's so much manufactured pap out there, acts championed by popular media. You only need to watch Dea's Transmusicales de Rennes gig to see what they're truly capable of. If they could get signed to a label or land a good support slot they'd get the right attention. Just have to see what happens....

To play bigger venues you have to be way better instrumentality than these ladies . For an idea how good of what prospective pros should be check out Larkin Poe 10 eleven years ago . Or Grace Bowers at 17 years old today . Even the cover band First to Eleven is way better instrumentality than this group . This band really needs a break out tune to start to fly like Lourde's Royal . Maybe a rearranged teen Angst version of Lori Mckenna 's / Rose Cousins song Shake .

Check out their cover of Crossroads (there are several on KZbin) and see for yourself and the audience reactions . That speaks for itself !
