Andy Mulhern Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Vocoustics Promotions presents: CAHALEN MORRISON & ELI WEST (playing 2 sets) The Blue Lamp Sunday 20th November £8/10 Advance tickets from 1UP Records or The Blue Lamp.From Seattle... Cahalen Morrison (guitar, banjo, mandolin, bouzouki, lap slide, vocals) and Eli West (guitar, banjo, mandolin, bouzouki, vocals) were invited into the Radio2 studio and after the session the great whispering Bob Harris described them as "quite extraordinary" ...When people talk about the music of Cahalen Morrison and Eli West, terms such as gorgeous, amazing, gentle, lush, sophisticated, soulful, organic and earthy get bandied around. When they released their stunning debut album, The Holy Coming of The Storm it created an instantaneous reaction on both sides of the Atlantic.Reviewers have praised the duo’s old-time music styled for the 21st century...“Eli and Cahalen sing about all of it. No note is left unreflected upon. They understand that when it comes to music, we are all on the receiving side, even when we are the ones playing it.” Dirk Powell "Music that the world needs!" - Tim O'Brien "Thrilling" - The List “A major new talent” - Maverick magazine “Outstanding” - fRoots magazine "Quite extrordinary" Bob Harris, Radio 2http://www.cahalenandeli.com/http://www.facebook.com/cahalenmorrisoneliwesthttp://www.vocoustics.com/http://tinyurl.com/vocousticsfacebook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
