Review 1 for Daniel Lanois Black Dub
Swamplands in Camden
Jazz Cafe @
- London @
- Sun 31 Jul 2011 @
Favourite moment: Daniel asking Brian to lay down a 'church groove'...which he subsequently did...and it was mighty fine too! @
Setlist: Nomad, Love Lives, The LAst Time, Surely, I Believe In You, Agave/Slow BAby, Steel, Fire, Silverado, The Messenger, I'd Rather Go Blind, Ring The Alarm, Sing, The Maker @
Opening act(s): Rocco de Luca. Wonderful set. Short but very sweet. Highlight was the addition of a roving French horn player adding a haunting melody line to the last track as he wandered amongst the crowd. @

Daniel Lanois is a true legend. His work with Brian Eno (and their shared production duties on U2 and Coldplay) are some of the most important contributions in modern music. So the chance to catch his latest quartet in the intimate surroundings of the Jazz Cafe is one not to miss! And what a night! There's an effortless to the band's playing that oozes charm out into the loving crowd. Daniel grins throughout. Trixie's smoky vocals hover in the air. Daryl quietly pulses the heartbeat. Brian provides the raw heartbeat on a small kit but with a dexterity that would put most 'big-kit' drummers to shame. And a proper, decent support act too - don't get many nights like this!

I saw Black Dub first on the internet, and I liked it very much. They were small videos, not the music you can actually find on the CD, which is not that great: too many effects. I was eager to see them live. Overall it was OK but it was clear when Trixie Whitley left the stage and the rest of the band played without her that she is the real asset of the band. Not to say that the band was bad (the drummer is fantastic) but this looks like a made up combo with a very very promising singer. I was glad she came back on stage for the end of the concert.
Otherwise, it was my first time at the Jazz Café. This place is like a fridge: very cold and very dark. The only ones that are treated well are those who sit above and eat, and pay more. I miss the rue des Lombards...

Favourite moment: Brian Blade opens a song, and we realize how sophisticated the playing and the sound engineering is. Also the euphonium accompaniment to support act. @

It's not every day you get a chance to use the word "Unique" correctly. We were talking about the gig for days before, and for days after. It was full of effortless musicianship, mystical atmosphere, new and old blended perfectly, in the sound, the songs, the performance. A genre-defying tour de force.

He was amazing but would have benefit of a better sound quality at the Jazz Cafe...this was poor for a musician of that quality....

Opening act(s): Rocco DeLuca. The support - Rocco DeLuca - was excellent too. As a music fan I'm stunned that I've never heard of him before. @

The Sunday night gig was awesome. I've been looking forward to this gig for soolong and was worried that it couldn't live up to my expectations. But it did and then some. The set was a good mix of older Lanois material and some new tracks from the album. The songs from the Black Dub album worked even better live - there was a real drive and energy to the band that for me has given the whole album a new slant. All band members shone on stage. There was an 'edge' to the gig as it was clear the band were enjoying themselves and were jamming in parts. Special mention must go to Trixie who appeared slightly nervous but who absolutely sang her heart out. It was a privilege to see Daniel and co in such an intimate venue. I just wish I could have made the Monday night too.
