Now, here is a top performer ...an artist. Megan Washington. An individualist. I have never seen anything like this. An accomplished musician, writer and leader of her band.
I immediately liked Megan Washington - because she sings and plays with a feisty individuality and talent. I thought she was brilliant and a breath of fresh doo-dah after some of the other stuff I have been listening to.
Full-on, no bollocks, no punches pulled; saying it how she sees it. Sure some numbers carry a few riffs but it's not you know, pop; she reminded me of Billie Holiday the first time I heard "Strange Fruit". Luved her.
I felt quite gutted when she had finished, I guess because although I was crawling all over the stage with my camera, trying not to trip over amps and wiring, I was captured by her music. Ever tried taking a great shot when yer fingers are popping, you can't keep still and yer feet start a-movin' around ?
