Last August Popcorn and I went to a music festival at a small outdoor venue called "Spout Yard" in Louth. It has various events there and is an intimate outdoor venue. Amongst other acts that day was Molly Amour, a professional singer, singing songs from the American Songbook. Popcorn wasn't really impressed but I was.

| Getting ready for their set, it was a warm but very windy day in Louth. |

| Molly doing a sound check. |
 |
| Tuning up. |
 |
| There were a few characters watching. |
 |
| And then the music started, I really enjoyed it. |
 |
| These two were both fine musicians on their respective instruments. |
 |
| This small venue is right in the centre of Louth, surrounded by lovely Victorian houses. There was quite a crowd around the venue. |
 |
| Well, I had to have a dog, didn't I? |
 |
| Molly sang beautifully and was quite animated at times. |
 |
| The "boys" had a short instrumental spot. |
 |
| Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. |
 |
| End of the set. Molly and the larger "Swing Amour" band have many videos on YouTube. Nikon Z6ii with 24-120mm lens. |
That looks like a lively and hugely enjoyable event, David. You’ve captured the fun and animation of both Molly and the audience. I think I’d have enjoyed it too and I’m going to look for Sing Amour on YouTube. Thanks so much fir the introduction, David and for the wonderful vivid photos! Val and Zoe :)
ReplyDeleteThe music they sing is very happy and uplifting, I hope you find time to view Swing Amour, I'm sure you will enjoy them. Thanks Val, David and Popcorn. 😊

ReplyDeleteNow this event looks like great fun! As always you spotted a dog. I wonder if Popcorn ever gets jealous. I’m so glad to see these enjoyable events and the way you capture them, well done! Take care. Ann
