Live Review: Milky Chance, Amy Shark

From the visceral and raw lyrical sentiments evoked from Amy Shark's support set, to the funked up kaleidoscopic disco anthems directed by German duo Milky Chance, it was a mixed night of genres and vibe - a pleasing, eclectic clash between electronic production and the more rustic features of folk.

Explaining to the crowd early in her set that the support band was having the night off (no surprise following the Groovin The Moo slog) it made way for a more intimate acoustic session with Amy Shark. She belted out the emotionally evocative chorus of Weekends, complimenting and giving punters a small insight into what it's like to tour with Milky Chance - apparently, they're unsurprisingly German and there's beer pong involved. It made you wish you were on tour with them.

Shark included a cover of Eminem's Superman, transforming the track with her dulcet vocals and piercingly clean guitar tones - and pulling on the heart strings just a little bit. It was humbling to be amongst a crowd singing along to every word during closer Adore, with punters visibly joining in the pure adoration (pun intended).

Playing Ego fairly early into their set, Milky Chance knew how to get the crowd grooving at the right moments. It was a crossroad of genres, from the blues of Philipp Dausch's harmonica solos peppered throughout to the rustic folk guitar and vocals coming from Clemens Rehbein and Antonio Greger.

Playing both old and new tracks, from Flashed Junk Mind, Sadnecessary to Alive, the audience were tantalised by their hypnotic rhythms. The band's adoption of slicker, electronic production has obviously paid off - think Mumford & Sons meets Blade Runner. With Dausch ripping out an absolutely intense harmonica solo at the end, the crowd erupted into a singalong for Cocoon. Dancing the night away to Stolen Dance and Sweet Sun, Milky Chance left you wanting more.
