Professional Gig Review
The first act consisted of live instruments and vocals. I believe they done a mixture of covers and original songs, all were performed well and the singer was very good. My only complaint about the performance was the fact that the singer always seemed to be faced away from the audience diminishing any connection she had to the listeners. Its hard for the audience to connect with the performers if they cant see them properly. But vocally and instrumentally the performance was great.
The main presence on stage during this act was the singer as she had a good voice and just needed to work on her stage awareness a bit

The second act consisted of a group of 6 (all singing and a couple playing instruments). The main thing I liked about this performance was the fact that it was very simple when it came down to the instruments. No backing track, just a guitar, drums and keyboard. Sometimes only a guitar. The fact that there were more singers in the group than there were musicians during each song meant it contrasted the simplicity of the instrumental. Adding harmonies and having different people singing different lyrics added a unique element to the performance. All of them faced the audience and sang confidently. The main presence on stage during this act was the vocals done between all the members.
The third act was in my opinion the standout performance. This is largely due to the standout performer who was the drummer in this Act. Turning the beats you hear in hip hop into actual drum patterns. Using the high hats mainly, added a unique sound to the music. All songs were covers and had the vocals of the songs playing with live instruments. This in my opinion is a good idea as it allows the band to play music to anything. Singers and rappers cant sing and rap to every song. But you can play along with an instrument to almost every genre of music. Another point to add would be the fact that it allows the audience to be somewhat comfortable in knowing whats coming next. If the band is playing well known hip hop songs to an audience of teenagers the majority of the listeners will enjoy what they are hearing. By this performance the audience was into the show but this is definitely the act that caused the most excitement.
To conclude I enjoyed all the performances and felt like all of them were done professionally and got the audience involved with the music.
