Cross border folk duo Big Little Lions returned to the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Oct. 24.
The duo of Salt Spring Island based vocalist/ guitarist Helen Austin and Cincinnati based drummer/keyboardist/vocalist Paul Otten, sang delightful har
monies and told stories.
They had a good sized crowd for a Wednesday night.
Otten multi-tasked on drums, keyboard and vocals, harmonizing beautifully with Helen Austin.
They even had a request for their single from a few years ago “Unicorn,” which they relearned on the spot to play for their fans.
“Make it up As You Go Along” was one of several high spirited highlights as was a slower, stalker song “I’ll Find You.”
Though they sang up beat pop folk tinged melodies , their songs a had a serious side to them especially on a new song about gun control called “Going to Make it Out Alive.”
They ended their set with another older song and a request “Find Your Tribe.”
