This was a bit of a punt but turned out enjoyable. I am a sucker for sibling harmony and this was twins harmony. They were more mainstream than I expected but the two voices were excellent and the guitarist playing with them also very good. They reminded me a bit of First Aid Kit in the sound, a sort of home counties version anyway.
First up was Tom Speight + Lydia?. She was actually a bit better than him but I guess it was his songs. He sang well enough but was a bit over confident and demanded that we sing and clap.
Ward Thomas were Catherine on guitar and vocals, Lizzy on keyboards and vocals and a guitarist whose name I didn't catch. They had a great rapport on stage, sang very well about love and family and heartbreak etc
I particularly liked it when the tempo was up - the song called 'Push for the Stride'where they let rip a bit was my highlight. Also the gentle encore song 'Deepest You' Other than that it was nice songs and great harmony singing and accompaniment, so a good evening all round.
