Live Review: Diana Krall
Amazingly talented, Krall created record-perfect music and displayed an unexpected humility and vulnerability that was endearing and charmed the pants off an already admiring crowd.
Live Review: Alicia Keys
She was charming, charismatic, sexy, inspiring and simply an extremely professional performer.
Live Review: Jill Scott, Jones Jnr
It was a truly inspiring performance and cathartic experience. Hopefully Australia doesn’t have to wait another ten years for her to come back.
Live Review: The Cinematic Orchestra
The evening was an amazing exploration into the relationship between sound and visual, and as the audience departed, there was a shared understanding that they had just experienced something extraordinary.
Live Review: Splendour In The Grass
Although Frank Ocean’s surprise absence was a shame, young New Zealand songstress Lorde was great late addition and wowed the crowd with her confidence and sleek delivery.
Live Review: Tame Impala, Midnight Juggernauts
Parker admitted it was their first time headlining the venue, which must mean that they are a “super massive band with lots of fans”. One look around the room confirmed this.
Live Review: Of Monsters & Men & Vance Joy
Old and young alike bounced to every song and belted each catchy chorus like it was their last chance.
Live Review: Nicholas Jaar & Charles Murdoch
It was just a shame that the intricacies of the mix were not crisper; sadly the bass and treble overpowered the detail, which was a flaw of the venue not the artist.
Semele Walk - Sydney Festival
Overall an amazing experience, like no other.

A different audience may have heightened the black humour of the piece, as there were a number of occasions where more audience interaction felt necessary.
