I have always been a fan of Amy's - even before Indigo Girls were a signed act..I wondered how she would be in this new venture into Country music. Let me say, she did not disappoint. I love her new songs and her voice is as great as ever. She is such a talented songwriter and singer, whether playing folk, rock, or country,
This was an album release show for "Goodnight Tender" it was awesome. So many fantastic songs and artists on one stage.The venue was great too, no complaints. Amy never disappoints live and this was no exception.
Fantastic show! We love AR! Can't wait to see her again!
Amy Ray is an unique and amazing musician. Her voice is awesome. Her songs are great. She rocks with the guitars and the mandolin. Lots of passion in her music and her performance. Her band was also great.
Amy is a great musician and her band was awesome. The show was so much fun. They played so many good songs and really rocked out. I've seen the indigo girls about 15 times at least but this was my first time seeing Amy by herself. I was so happy I did. I would def go again!
Amazing energy, great venue, so much fun! Love you Amy!
Amy Ray is an amazing singer/songwriter. She pours 100% of herself into every note and draws you in. Amazing and everyone should see her live.
Amy Ray's energy the minute she took stage surged into the crowd as she powered through the first song. The energy kept building song after song, it was solid show even though she disclosed half her band was sick with the flu- although you would have never known it. Her great rock and roll voice paired with beautiful lyrics made for an awesome night out. This is a show not to be missed.
Amy and her band mates put on an amazing show in Brighton on Wednesday night. Amy's music is intense and full of emotion. Her style moves from humble to humorous, shy to joyous. It was a pleasure. Amy leaves it all on stage.
she was rockin' and sounded great! the crowd was great too. not too pushy or rude. good times, good times.
Amy always puts on a great show and at a small venue like the Variety she is even better!!!!!
Wow! Amy Ray puts on such a great show! With presence and heart, Amy lead a talented and tight band of indie rock fixtures through a raucous evening of country, punk and soul. I've long admired the Indigo Girls' talents, but Amy's ever-evolving songwriting (and voice) just get better with time. You should definitely check her out!
The joint rocked, Belafea and AR and the kids were great!! Loved the room too. I won't hesitate to come again. Wish I could come for the Breeders but I am otherwise engaged. :(
Gritty, down and dirty, in yer face punk with a "I don't need anyone to tell me who I am" message honed with age, experience, and downright ownership. For all those LGBT youth and even for those of us "40-something's" who have been 1, 2, or all of those things at the same time, this kind of concert experience is second to none in my book. Opener and North Carolina natives Bellafea rocked the house as well, and my 22 year old niece is already listening and playing their stuff. I'll continue to pack my dog and myself (and anyone else I can find who's willing to listen) in my truck if I know there's still independent bands and club owners willing to provide this kind of authentic concert experience.
Amy Ray was incredible as a solo act. I have loved Indigo Girls since the 80's and I've seen about 20 shows since they were playing tiny auditoriums. Amy definitely is the edgy rocker of the two and my favorite. Her show was intimate and she really played to the crowd. Amy really comes out and is able to rock when she plays solo! I would recommend her show to anyone.
Bella Fay opened - the vocalist was incredible! Amy , Kaia , Melissa , Julie all tured in incredible performances- high energy , great music, getting the crowd rocking- its hard to say it was one of their best shows because they never seem to give less than their best . This is a ticket you never lose with .
As always, Amy Ray and her extraordinary band were awesome, tight and friendly. There was a 20-year-old standing beside us who had never heard of Amy Ray. She's heard of her NOW.
Amy is an absolutely amazing artist, and there is no question that her band rocked... But, where are the sound engineers any more???? Isn't there ANYONE on her staff/crew who can stand in the back of the room and tell them that the band is WAY too loud, compared to the vocal mics? All of the instruments ATE her amazing vocals. Look... they were very skilled, and a very tight cohesive group, but when the drums, base, keyboards are SO loud that you can't make out a single word that Amy is saying it is a HUGE disappointment. If I was going to see a rock jam session, then i would go see another group. Amy Ray is one of the most amazing lyricists on the planet. If you can't understand her vocals, her words, then it is a colossal waste of time. I had a fine time, but ultimately the ridiculous loudness of the band instruments removed all nuance from the performance, and just left me bored by the end. She did ONE acoustic song - the best song of the night. I could understand exactly what she was saying, and was moved. The rest of the time she was just making sounds, trying to compete with the drummer and guitars/base. Don't get me wrong... I'm not against her edgy rocker direction at all. I love it on the albums. I just keep going to professional concert after concert, and the problem just repeats and repeats. Doesn't matter whether it is a concert of 150 people like this was, or a stadium of 15,000. It seems the sound engineers have all been laid off. Or, maybe they are too close to the band to be objective. But categorically, unequivocally, garbled vocals = failed concert = wasted time and money = less loyalty to an artist on my part.
Amy Ray was great! She is very personable and her band is really cool. I like her new sound with the latest CD (Didn't it feel kinder).
If you're a fan of Amy from the Indigo Girls, forget everything you know about this incredible singer. Her solo stuff is heartfelt and beautifully written. This show was a good deal of songs off her most recent album, with some great older songs thrown in - the type the entire crowd knows the words to. The tone of the show was a "big happy family" rockin' out together. During the encore, she led an amazing jam at the end of "Laramie", then finished off the show with a cover of Tom Petty's "Refugee", and totally made it her own. I am so glad I was able to make it to this one, it was an experience that I'll be smiling about for days.
