We will be getting our recaps of this week's The Lone Bellow shows up soon, but in the meantime we wanted to share our friend, Di Holmes's, gorgeous pictures of the band's shows in London, St. Albans, and Brighton. Thanks for sharing them with us, Di!

Islington Assembly Hall, London

2/1/2016

I’m writing this on my flight home from Amsterdam, where I had joined my husband for his work trip. It was well timed to match up with part of The Lone Bellow’s European tour (I STRONGLY encouraged my very supportive husband to try to make that happen), so I was able to take a quick flight over to London to see my very favorite band perform at Islington Assembly Hall in London on Friday night.

Often, after I haven’t seen the band for a while (in this case it had been over two months!), I worry that perhaps I won’t find the next show to be as fantastic or exciting. But I am always proven wrong. Even though I’ve seen them perform each song most likely more than a dozen times, even though I know I will probably get sprinkled with more of Zach’s sweat from standing over me on stage during “Heaven Don’t Call Me Home,” or that they will probably break into some wonderfully terrible song from the 90s some time during the night, or that Kanene and Jason will be super cute together at some point, the band is able to make it feel fresh each time.  It amazes me that they are able to put so much of themselves into their performance, and share so much of their vulnerability, every single night to connect so deeply with the audience.

Friday night was no different. I’ve seen Zach channel a Southern preacher before, but here he was in full on revivalist mode, at one point staring out into the crowd in a sweaty frenzied way, chanting, “I’m feeling the spirit in here, I’m feeling the spirit in here!” There was definitely some kind of spirit in the room and the crowd was feeling it, too. As always, The Lone Bellow had us in the palm of their hands throughout the show, bringing us up with “Leave Me” and “Take My Love,” then bringing us back down to that deeply emotional place with “Marietta” and “Fake Roses.” 

After another series of upbeat songs, including Brian’s “Heaven Don’t Call Me Home,” (yes, plenty of Zach’s sweat rained down on me), Jason and Justin left the stage so Zach, Kanene, and Brian could do the acoustic set that always brings the room to (near) silence. Kanene set the tone for the beauty of the moment with “Call to War,” and then they performed Brian’s “Watch Over Us,” which held the crowd rapt. They finished up with an acoustic version of “Looking For You,” with the disco ball shimmering throughout the room. It was gorgeous, and left me feeling spent.

But leave it to Brian to lighten the mood by doing a quick guitar riff of Springsteen’s “Dancing In the Dark,” and the crowd cheered with encouragement. After a chorus of the song, followed by deep, throaty chants of “Bruce! Bruce!” we were all ready for the slightly more energetic, but still full of feeling, “You Can Be All Kinds of Emotional.”

During the second half of the set, Zach introduced the band. He told the story of how he and Brian met at a talent show as college freshman. Brian was on crutches due to a football injury, but got up to sing Edwin McCain’s “I’ll Be.” During the song, his guitar broke, so he just set it down and finished the song a cappella. Zach decided then and there that he needed to meet that guy on stage. Brian chimed in to share that he and Zach made a bet that he would have to sing the song any time Zach told the story, so the disco ball started up again and we all sang along. When Brian kept going after the first chorus, Zach cringed and begged him to stop, saying he never has to sing it again. We’ll see about that…

When he introduced Kanene, he said her favorite band is Savage Garden, so we all sang along to  “Truly Madly Deeply.” Kanene got him back by telling us Zach’s favorite song is “Barbie Girl,” and Zach sheepishly sang the chorus – “I’m a Barbie girl, in the Barbie world, life in plastic, it’s fantastic …” Fortunately the audience knew much of the rest of the song to help him out.

They ended the set with “Green Eyes and a Heart of Gold,” leaving the crowd absolutely riled up before waving and leaving the stage. When they returned for their encore, the crowd spontaneously broke into the chorus of “Green Eyes.” We were definitely feeling that spirit! They brought back the emotions a bit with my personal favorite, “Tree To Grow.” I’m always appreciative when they include that song on the set list. Then they finished up the night with their title track, “Then Came the Morning.” Zach divided the room in half, asking Brian’s side to follow along with him, and Kanene’s side to follow along with her. We all “ahhh-ahhhh-ed” to create the background, while Zach provided the rousing lyrics, complete with foot stomps in all the right places, then left behind his mic to approach the audience and conduct us to sing along with Kanene and Brian, to end the song, and the night, on the perfect note. The rest of the band members joined Zach at the front of the stage to say goodnight and take a much-deserved bow. And then it was over. Until the next time.

Picture
Finally, I believe we have written before that meeting other fans has been one of the best parts of our “The Lone Bellow adventure,” but I feel compelled to mention it again. There is something about The Lone Bellow that inspires devotion from some truly wonderful people, and I am grateful to meet them at almost every show. Perhaps it has something to do with waiting in line for doors to open, or sticking around after the show to say hello and thanks to the band, that facilitates these encounters, as it is likely the most serious fans who are willing to do these things, especially in lousy weather (I’m having flashbacks to Portland, ME, at 3degrees F!).  So we often start chatting, and these fellow fans are always so lovely and interesting. Sometimes we keep in touch after the shows, sometimes we don’t, but I am always grateful for that sense of community we share. And I love the friends we have made on this journey, and look forward to making many more in the shows ahead.

Dave Abare Reviews The Lone Bellow

Dave Abare, who writes over at his blog Rambling Abare, got in touch with us to share his review of The Lone Bellow's show at House of Independents in Asbury Park, NJ, last week. It was his first time seeing the band perform live, and his reaction was just what you would expect. He writes, "The singer/songwriter Marc Cohn has a line in his hit 'Walking in Memphis' where he answers a woman asking if he's a Christian where he replies, 'M'am I am tonight' and that's how you feel experiencing The Lone Bellow in a live setting. They aren't a 'Christian band' nor do the majority of their lyrics talk a lot about God but when you're in their presence, hearing them perform and taking in the majesty of the moment, you're a believer in whatever they are preaching."

You can read his entire review here. Thanks for sharing with us, Dave! We'll see you in Northampton!

Guest Post: Happy Hour with The Lone Bellow, Pittsburgh

11/6/2015

1 Comment

One of my favorite things about being an extreme Lone Bellow fan is meeting other extreme Lone Bellow fans, and making connections with people I wouldn’t normally have had the chance to know. One such fan is Skip, who we have now run into at many shows spanning both coasts, despite us all living on the East Coast!

Skip was at the Pittsburgh show this past Tuesday, and graciously agreed to write a recap of the happy hour that night, and share photos from happy hour and the show.

Is a happy hour still happy hour if booze is not being served?  In the case of The Lone Bellow at The Rex Theatre on Tuesday night in Pittsburgh, the answer is always yes!  Serving host to an enthusiastic crowd of a dozen fans Zach, Brian, Kanene, Justin and Jason shared tails of TLB history, favorite fall movies and serenaded the crowd with classics and always fun to hear, new tunes.  Plus it turned out to Brian Elmquist’s birthday which meant a hearty and loud Happy Birthday would be sung later in the evening.
 
The musical portion of the Happy Hour started out with Zach proclaiming he had a few nerves which translated into an “bonus verse” and big smiles for all the band on “If You Don’t Love Me.”  The audience quickly got the questions flowing by asking about the origins of the name of the band.   Zach told a story about his grandmother’s guest room which was decorated in clown faces (yikes, not cool Grandma!).  Zach also saw a ghost out of his bedroom window...which thankfully turned out to be a trash bag caught on the fence.  One night a bull bellowed and ever since writing TLB songs reminded him of his grandparents music…thus the threesome became The Lone Bellow.
 
The next question inquired about the evolution of the band’s writing process from their debut album to the stack of new songs they have been debuting on the road.   Zach described the process as free flowing and collaborative with Brian chiming in that “having a bus helps.”
 
Conversation soon turned to the band’s thoughts on fans having cell phones at concerts and often viewing the show from the camera lens rather than their own eyes.   Kanene didn’t think the behavior was bad, more just evidence of today’s “sharing culture” to show their friends they were at the show.  Though Zach questioned if anyone ever actually goes back and looks at the videos they took with their cell phones.
 
Returning to the music the band busted out a new tune titled “Jessica.”   It will certainly become another TLB classic with the blended harmonies, exceptional song writing and sincerity that fans love.  The next question inquired as to how audiences differed.  The band believes a venue and audience can really dictate the tone of a show.  Some venues are most accustomed to sitting thus perhaps keeping a more subdued vibe for the audience.
 
The band went on to share with the audience the story of how they met.  Go visit www.thelonebellow.com for the answer if you don’t know it already!   As they waited for the next question Zach decided to throw one out to the band asking for everyone favorite Fall movie.   Kanene responded with the true classic “ET.”   According to other audience members, Brian allegedly said Legend of the Fall (but I couldn’t confirm that in my notes).  Jason with all of his seriousness said the Disney movie Pocahontas!  Justin with his quick wit responded with “Fall Out Boys.”  And not to be outdone, Zach said his favorite fall movie was “Sweet Home Alabama.”  Really Z???
 
The last question of the evening asked the band about other artists they have played with while out on tour.  There have been a lot with so many great bands that everyone in TLB felt blessed. A few names that stuck out to the band included Dawes, Leon Bridges, Blind Boys of Alabama, and Brandi Carlile.  
 
The final two song requests of the Happy Hour had the band playing “Button” and “Fire Red Horse.”  For the last story of the afternoon, Zach shared with the crowd that the Fire Red Horse was actually his uncle’s horse that he nursed back to health after it became entangled in barbed wire.
 
If you haven’t had a chance to attend a Happy Hour with The Lone Bellow there are a few shows left to do so!  Don’t miss out on what has been such a neat opportunity for fans to get to know and hear the band in an intimate setting!

Seattle

10/14/2015

We are back in Boston after having visited Seattle in order to see another Lone Bellow show, which is apparently the only reason we travel anymore. If you've been with us for a while then you know that this isn't even ridiculous for us. You will also know that what follows is unadulterated gushing. We can't help it. This band just keeps amazing us.

For this show, we decided to splurge on the "Happy Hour with The Lone Bellow" package, and it proved to be well worth it. The band performed a small, acoustic set interspersed with a Q & A with the audience, which was probably no greater than 25 people. It was a perfect start to the evening, and also a great reminder that these guys genuinely love their fans. 

When we returned for the main show, we were completely impressed by opener, Hugh Masterson. This was our first time seeing him, but it will definitely not be our last. Although he was without his band for this performance, his set was solid, he told good jokes, and he was more than capable of giving a strong solo performance.

Anderson East followed, and he and his band mates were fantastic. They did exactly what an opening band should do: make great music and energize the crowd. We weren't quite sure of what to expect of this band, and we ended up being pleasantly surprised.

When TLB took the stage, the crowd was more than ready. They opened with "I Let You Go," and we were instantly in our happy place. They played for just under two hours, and as usual there were plenty of surprises. Some of our favorite moments were:
  • "Marietta."  We are not sure where Zach goes when he sings this song, but he completely gives it everything he's got. Inevitably, we end up in tears before the song ends.
  • "To the Woods." We love this sweet, little song and had not heard this song live since the Paradise show when Zach came alone on stage to begin the show with it. We were surprised to hear that the band has completely reworked this song, and it sounded nothing like the album version. We ended up loving it in its new form, but would be happy to  hear either version.
  • "Lovely in Blue." This was a new song that the band has only performed a few times in the last couple of months. It has a classic country vibe, and provided another opportunity to enjoy Kanene's voice.
  • 90's R & B. We are never sure if we are going to be treated to these homages to 90's music, but thankfully we were. For us, watching the band momentarily lapse into R & B performers never gets old. Not quite ready to let it go, Kanene and Brian totally surprised Zach by returning to "I'm Every Woman" during the last verses of "Green Eyes and a Heart of Gold."  They were quite proud that they pulled this off, and gave each other enthusiastic "high fives" once the song was finished.
  • The finale. Wow! After the Portland, ME show, last February, we kind of jokingly, kind of seriously, asked Brian if they would do a cover of "Purple Rain."  We did not actually expect him to take us up on it, but we learned that they eventually performed it at a couple of shows. Unfortunately, we were not in attendance for those. It turns out, though, it was worth waiting for.  Along with Hugh Masterson and the members of Anderson East, they did a cover that brought the house down. It was epic. We're sure Prince himself would have been proud. 


We were happy to learn that this show was being streamed by the Melodic Caring Project. MCP is a non-profit organization whose goal is to share music with children who are hospitalized. TLB made sure to acknowledge this, and throughout the evening they dedicated different songs to the kids who were watching. 

We have less than a month before we get to see them three times in one week! And don't be surprised if we manage to squeeze in one more somewhere along their tour- after all, between the two of us, we have plenty of friends around the country!

The Lone Bellow at Whelan's - Recap

8/4/2015

0 Comments

 
We always love hearing from other fans, and recently John James left a wonderfully detailed comment/recap on a previous post after seeing The Lone Bellow perform at Whelan's in Dublin last week. We wanted to share it more prominently on our site.
Assessing a gig experience is difficult, because it can be subject to all sorts of external factors, which are all about you and not the band; context is everything.

In this context, the pre-cursors were not too great. The world is going to hell in sharp order in a hand-basket and my own health is not too good,thus traveling down the big city for a gig was perhaps not ideal.

Whelans is a small venue,but it has a lot of musical history and it has an atmosphere and it is in a city filled with history and music and the love of telling stories.

Met up with Michael (pronounced the Irish way (Mee-hawl) and Bob, veterans of the venue,just here to see some fresh talent; old stagers like myself. After a pleasing performance from the support act, Old Hannah, Brian came on-stage to tune-up his guitars with the other sound-check guys.

They all came on at 9.30 with a blistering performance of 'And then came the morning.' which really livened up an already rowdy crowd, followed with Fresh Roses and Marietta - I thought that they were just going to do the whole album in live reproduction,but they mixed in some tracks from their first album, before ending the first third with a rousing 'Georgia Will' with Brian cheerleading the crowd and getting us all to sing - that did not take much encouragement.

Bob - who had dissed the merchandising stall - had bought the cd after the third song.

They then left the stage to do an acoustic version of the stunningly beautiful ''Two sides of lonely', which surprisingly for Dublin, required the crowd to fall quiet - even more surprising was that they did! This is Dublin, after all.' You could hear a pin-drop as they harmonised tin the song, performed as I said,out there in amongst us. Wonderful.

They rejoined the rest of the band on stage for a pleasing mix of the two albums; my only personal disappointment was that they could not find a space for 'Telluride.' which reminds me of Springsteen at his most poetic. But they came back with 'Carry Me Away' with the crowd helping out on the chorus - we're good like that! Then they joined us in the middle again and Kanene sang Paul Simon's 'Slip-Sliding Away', good grief what a voice she has, I found my cheeks wet with emotion and we all helped her out with the chorus and despite it being 11.05 and we were well lubricated,surprisingly we held the tune with Kanene. 200 strangers chrorusing in tune without rehearsal was just one of those experiences that you cannot describe, it was so beautiful. And it wasn't just me in tears, Michael and many others around me were wiping their eyes.

I am way of slipping into hyperbole. But I have 30 years of gig-going behind me and I cannot think of another night that I have enjoyed more than that night with TLB. I think they are special. I really hope they recognise how special they are and they keep it together, because Bob and Michael both said they will be massive. They deserve to be.

It will inevitably mean, that you won't see them again in such a cosy, intimate venue, which will be a loss, but they are ready now for the main stage at the big festivals, stadiums and other big venues..

I know now, that if you can get to a TLB gig, then you should really strive to do so. A special special night. I love the band.

Thank you, John James, for this wonderful recap.

The Lone Bellow headed across the Atlantic last week, and took Ireland and England by storm.

On Wednesday afternoon, the band stopped in to the studio of The Louise Duffy Show. You can listen to the interview and performance of "You Never Need Nobody" here.

That night, they played a sold out show at Whelan's in Dublin.

Throwback Thursday- Brighton Music Hall

7/30/2015

0 Comments

 
Earlier this week Bobbie and some mutual friends of ours made a trip to Boston's Brighton Music Hall to see a Fantastic Negrito performance.  I, unfortunately, was unable to attend, but in getting some details of the show, I was reminded of how incredible it is to be able to see a show at Brighton Music Hall. It's a great little venue. 

This week we purchased tickets to two more recently announced Lone Bellow shows (Boston and South Burlington), and we already have tickets for their Seattle and one of their NYC shows. (There's nothing so great as knowing you have some Lone Bellow concerts in your near future!) After these concerts, we will both be into the twenties as far as the number of times we've seen them.  We may have to stop counting, which is not a bad problem to have!

It was over two years ago that we first entered Brighton Music Hall, having no idea what we were in for. (You can read more about that here.) I found this video from that night of "You Never Need Nobody" and was reminded of  just how much they impressed us from the get-go. We are a little sad that we most likely won't get to see them in that space again, but are grateful for every chance we do get to see them, no matter where it happens to be.

Well, ok, I guess it's technically a Tuesday roundup. We are trying to get back on top of this site, as The Lone Bellow has some very busy months ahead, and we want to share all the info we can about them.

They had a particularly busy weekend, playing at festivals each day, Friday-Sunday. But they also did a couple of smaller shows in the days before.

On Wednesday, they performed an intimate show at the Renaissance Hotel in D.C. as part of the hotel's Signature Global Music Experience. We so wish we could have been there.

You can read more about the show and see some beautiful photos here and here.
Now for the festivals...

First up was Newport Folk Festival in Newport, RI. I broke down and, despite my dislike of festivals, went to see them, so I'll have a recap of the show posted here in the next couple of days. NPR recorded their set, and you can listen to it here:
NPR Music's Rachel Horn wrote, "The Lone Bellow's Newport Folk set was powerful and practiced, but the trio also kept up an air of joyous spontaneity by bringing a stream of special guests onstage: The horn players of the New Breed Brass Band added punch to "Then Came The Morning" and "The One You Should've Let Go," Sara Watkins popped in for a fiddle solo, and both Leon Bridges and the women of Lucius added their voices at different points during the performance."

And Adam Kissick took some great photos of the show for NPR that you can view with the article.


Officially my favorite set of the festival and it's only the first day. @thelonebellow brought the Fort down. □□□. #NewportFolkFestival #livinmybestlife #FolkYeah #thelonebellow #Day1wasfun

    Who We Are

    We are Abra and Bobbie, two friends living in Boston who go to a lot of concerts together. We saw The Lone Bellow, having never heard of them, and could not believe our good fortune in discovering such talent. We now try to go by the "Four-Hour-Rule", meaning if we can get to a show within four hours, we will be there, hopefully right up front.
