Living Room Tour December 31, 2006
Posted by CamdenKiwi in : Miscellany , trackbackBraving the nether reaches of the Metropolitan line with friends Leanne and Craig, I went out to a New Years Eve Eve party in the wilds of Harrow last night. The party was a good one, with a nice mix of people I knew and many new but friendly faces, lots of bubbly and far too much food.
The highlight of the evening was a short set by a guitarist / singer, Tom Lillywhite. He’s been doing a ‘Living Room Tour’ playing at people’s house parties to small groups, and is just about to release his first hit single. He plays unamplified, original songs, and is rather good. Classical concerts aside, its the first time I’ve heard live music at a reasonable volume for ages. Lest you write him off as appealing only to the forty-something there’s lots of youthful angst going on in the lyrics. They’re good pop songs.
So go and have a look at his website, and see, or hear, his music. The videos are definitely of the ‘geek in a bedroom’ variety, and don’t add much to the music, but you never know, he might be the next Arctic Monkey.
