Kina Grannis killed it!
by thuff7 on 5/15/14Birchmere - AlexandriaThe impeccably charming Kina Grannis brought her new band to the Birchmere on her new album Elements debut mini-tour and completely awed the crowd. She quickly captivated the crowd's attention with a stellar performance of a wide selection from Elements sprinkled with favorites from her previous album Stairwells. They included Valentine, Cambridge, In Your Arms and an encore throwback to her classic song Message From Your Heart that debuted during halftime of the 2008 Superbowl. With a strong show of solidarity from her most-capable bandmates, she shed some of her endearing awkwardness and took complete command of her music. The Beatle-esque screams from the adoring audience were in no small part a show of excitement and pride for the clear mastery of the musician and the music.
