I guess the purpose of this blog is to advertise upcoming events, rather than the ones that have already taken place. Instead, I figured that since I was told of this event only last minute, I would write about it anyway. Last night I attended a KT Tunstall concert at the Union Chapel, Upper Street Islington, London. Lit'ally across the street from my apartment.
- For those who care, she is performing again tonight at the Union Chapel, for more information and for the tickets click here KT Tunstall @ Union Chapel Nov, 9th 2011 7pm.
She was amazing. Breathtaking. Moving. Her voice is powerful and soft. And the venue was great as well. The Union Chapel is a proper two-storey church, the quality of the sound was excellent and the atmosphere was even more so. She can juggle her voice, the piano, the guitar, pedals, all at once. And her a cappella rendition was spectacular. With no flaws. I have to say, I had not heard of KT Tunstall in a long time, I used to love 'Suddely I see' and the uber-famous 'The Black horse and the Cherry Tree', but I had never gone so far as to look her up on the Internet or look for new songs.
Below, I posted a few videos. I obviously came unprepared for a proper recording session, and took videos with my iPhone. Better than not having any videos at all, but the quality is quite low. But at least you can get an idea of the atmosphere and of her beautiful voice. Enjoy!
