Bowerbirds, Little Wings & Damien Jurado

My first trip to Bush Hall in Shepard's Bush and I will be going back. At max capacity it might hold 300 people. the line up was very mellow leading out with The Bowerbirds from Atlanta. Their new album is amazing and I would highly recommend it. A nice little three piece group where everyone seems to play just about everything on stage at some point in the set. At this point %90 of the people there are still sitting on the floor and would remain that way through Little Wings I hadn't heard any of his music before but it was a pleasant suprise. some of the best lyrics of the evening. Later confirmed as Damien Jurado also complemented him on his amazing song writing. not a huge fan of his albums so far, but him with a guitar on stage was really good. Damien Jurado played an amazing set. Only a few more people stood for his set which went on until well after 11pm. Rounding out with a 4 or 5 song encore by himself.
