The Bamboos put on a fantastic show, proving perhaps on this tour that they are a stand-out act all on their own, not just a great house band with two extraordinary vocalists.

If this sounds like a love story perhaps it was, and if you love your rock music without pretence but with a whole lot of Southern-inspired hospitality then get on down to an Alabama Shakes show while they are still playing smaller venues.
