The concert had been badly publicised and no indication of what time the artiste was meant to appear on stage the ticket or from the venue. She came on at 8.45 and played a 45 minute set 20 minute break then a further 45 minutes. It is a crying shame that someone with such a beautiful voice played to a crowd of less than 200. Especially when she advised the crowd that it had taken 8 hours to get to Edinburgh.

She was mightly disapointed at the lack of numbers - joking that when she played at the opening night of the Jam House with Jools Holland it was packed and she couldn't see the floor - tonight she admired the floor. Her band were excellent and the guitar solos were particularly good. We got Blues with one female member getting right into the swing by dancing on her own in front of the stage.

There were a few more dancing towards the end and she had played gospel, soul, rock and blues including an Elvis Costello song as well as some of her own songs.

Everyone wanted to hear I'd Rather Go Blind but I don't think anyone expected a 15 minutes worth of the most haunting vocal going from near silence to a crescendo and the band delivering the goods too.

She finshed with If Your Ready and 5 minutes after the end she thanked me (as she walked to sign copies of her CD's) for telling her that she was fantastic. It made my evening.

Brilliant night but there should have been 2000 wanting to see such a voice with a tremendous backing band instead of the poor turnout. Great venue though.

The band were great and well worth waiting for but what a wait. Arrived at 6.50pm, had to stand for 3 hours as they did not come on until 9.45pm. So although the band were good, I would not go to see a gig at this venue again.
