There were tough choices to be made on July 6 with a couple great, late starting shows.
The show I really wanted to see was the return of the Heartbroken.
These rising country/ pop/ folk stars featuring Dahmnait Doyle, drummer/ vocalist Blake Manning, bassist Peter Fusco, Guitarist / vocalist Damhnait Doyle and lead guitarist Stuart Cameron.
They played to a “Small but mighty crowd” of about 20, which is about twice as many as they had back in February.
They started off slow with Doyle playing some pretty mandolin and slowly building up the energy.
They played a lot of tracks from their debut CD “Tonight, Tonight.”
She donned a beautiful old 1963 Gibson SG for a couple numbers including the likely next single “The Truth,” then a couple more.
Doyle and Manning supplied beautifully haunting vocal harmonies.
They switched instruments throughout, with Fusco picking up the mandolin and Cameron adding lap steel guitar for another sad, slow song.
It was an excellent show which deserved more people.
