Loved Darlingside and Tall Heights but the mixing was awful. Never heard the cello or the woman from Tall Heights. Darlingside were wonderful but would have been better if they had enough mics. I will come again and hope for better.
The dynamics of these 3 bands is heavily weighted in the ability to listen and fall into perfect timing on each lift and pause. They all played together on and off throughout the night, as friends would, and the sound (other than Darlingside's) was phenomenal. kudos to the sound and stage guys for constantly swapping out instruments and mics throughout the night. And the encore of Eddie Vedder's Hard Sun with all three bands was powerful!
The TallRoomSide family is full of extremely talented, humorous, and kindhearted individuals. Never do you feel more like a partner in the music experience than with these three bands. They always take care to address the crowd, crack a few witty jokes, introduce each band member to their audience, and are always available to chat after the show. They love hugs and kisses and aren't afraid to show it on stage. And did I mention that the music they play is phenomenal? These kids are going somewhere. Don't miss an opportunity to see them live. And you'd be crazy not to own an album or two.
Darlingside, Tall Heights and the Ballroom Thieves were all outstanding, but Callie Peters, cellist with the Ballroom Thieves literally stole the show with her incredible rendition of "Bury Me Smiling", written by Martin Earley and arranged by BERKLEE graduate Peters. Her voice, phrasing and timing were immaculate and without a doubt this song is a show stopping hit. Callie graciously accepted the longest and most enthusiastic applause on a night where the crowd thoroughly enjoyed every tune the three bands expertly smithed.
Listening to the ballroom thieves on iTunes, soundcloud, in any headphones really, does not do this band justice. The music in their love performance physically hits and completely surrounds you. Not to mention they have awesome stage presence.
I've been going to Ballroom Thieves shows for several years now and they never disappoint! Comprised of strings, percussion, and a cello, the Thieves wed lyrics cringe-worthy of bitter-sweet nostalgia and rowdy boldness with instrumentals that leave everyone exhausted from stomping along. This event featured many new songs off their soon-to-be-released full-length album (2 EPs were released already), a jaw-dropping solo from their new cellist, and a cathartic crowd-pleasing finisher sung acoustically in the middle of the venue floor. Their roughly hour-long set was filled with extremely positive feedback and an incredible atmosphere that always dwarfs whoever takes the stage before and after them.
This was my third time seeing the Ballroom Thieves and they are always awesome!! They have become my favorite band to see live. And this venue was my favorite so far. It was a nice small size but not too small, and it has 3 bars including one upstairs. We had a great view and it seemed like pretty much everyone did. And the patio to have dinner and drinks before was amazing too! A perfect night with good food & sangria, and awesome music in a great venue.
The Ballroom Thieves are one of my favorite local bands to see live. This was my 6th show of theirs in a year, and every time I see them it's a fun show. The Sinclair is an amazing venue. Anywhere you stand you have a great view of the stage and the sound is perfect. The drinks are good and there is a bar convenient to anywhere you are standing for the show. I also really enjoyed the opening bands. Tigerman Woah were really fun live and I found myself dancing to their music! The Ghost of Paul Revere was an interesting choice to follow Tigerman Woah and I think I would have enjoyed them more if the two bands weren't so different. Overall awesome! I highly recommend seeing The Ballroom Thieves whenever they come to your area.
AMAZING!!!, unforgettable. I go to maybe 3-4 shows per a year, and I make sure 3 of those 4 are Ballroom Thieves and Ghosts of Paul Revere... and this time they were together
This band was out of this world entertaining. They captured the audience with every song and left everyone wanting more in the end!
TOtally worth going to with kids from 0 to about 7. Realyl well done, relaxed, laid back, great that they had My Gym there for the kids to add to the activities for them in addition to dancing. We would definitely do this again. Great for peopel who are normally averse to "kid stuff"!
Their set was awesome. They played from both their old and new CD, and got down into the crowd for the last song. We're going to see them again in November.
The Ballroom Thieves killed it. Had a fantastic night
Friday 04October2013, Harvard Square's The Sinclair, standing room only sell out crowd of 500... Turning concert going hopefuls away at the door, the Ballroom Thieves released their new self-titled EP and basically stole their own show. With countless loyal fans singing along to older, newer and brand new songs, tunesmiths Martin, Devin and Callie definitely gave Boston fans a night to remember.
