Fantastic small venue, small crowd, all I feel some people had never seen Echobelly before. For me, just as good as the August gig in derby

Nice intimate venue. Support The Lapels were very good, and Echobelly were excellent. They performed a great set for an hour (including encore). They deserve to play to a larger audience. The vocals were a little low in the mix for the first 3-4 songs. Security need to keep an eye on audience members vaping in the concert - not great for the non smokers amongst us.

Very enjoyable gig, taking me back to the mid 90s. Good support band to. If I had any minor criticism at all, the vocals on the microphone could have been better and more balanced.
