I discovered Sammy Rae and The Friends over a year ago and have been hooked ever since. When I realized they were coming to KC, I immediately knew I would be making the drive from STL. Their opening band, Fleece, was an amazing time! They had a unique sound and a really charismatic band.
Sammy Rae and The Friends did not disappoint! My only complaint was that the night had to end. They cultivated an electric atmosphere that was warm and inviting, and you couldn't help but dance and smile and cry and laugh along with them! I was really happy to see that they seem genuinely close-knit, and it was reflected in their performance. Each member of the band had opportunities to shine, winning over the crowd immediately. There was never a dull moment on-stage. No matter where you were standing, one of the Friends were soloing or dancing in a way that made us feel like we were seeing something unique, something special.
I'll be attending any Sammy Rae and The Friends concert I can in the future, without hesitation! Next time, I'll bring more friends with me! Thanks for a great night, Sammy Rae! Truly one of the best I've ever had!
