Syd Arthur are definitely a groove band and if you’re in the groove you just get swept along with the magnificent cacophony of it all. Don’t get me wrong there’s some good songs in there too. Syd Arthur are the three Magill brothers and Raven Bush, multi-instrumentalist nephew of Kate.
It’s a decent crowd in the Boileroom tonight and the intimacy of the venue suits the feel of the music perfectly. Its difficult to pick out a specific highlight as the gig I think needs to be taken in the round as a single piece of music with ebbs and flows, highs and lows but that said ‘into eternity’ is a fine track.
A thoroughly enjoyable night with a great young band keeping the groove alive.
Till the next time, keep on prog rockin y’all
