On this rainy night in Glasgow you can't help but be overjoyed that The Zuton carnival has arrived in town, consider this dull evening brightened. Liverpool's sons (and daughter) of blues tinged psychedelia are back in town once again supporting the Thrills at King Tuts.
Those who had never heard of The Zutons before were won over by their terrific, energy packed set. Second single "Creepin, An' A Crawlin'", offers a spooky insight into The Zuton world, "Remember Me" provokes some awful joke both on and off stage. Thankfully comedic talent isn't what counts here, songs are and The Zutons have bundles of them, as "Ramblin' Man" proves turning out to be a fantastic lament about loneliness and isolation.
Set closer, "Zuton Fever", sees front man Dave McCabe preaching the Zuton word to newcomers, for which they should all be forever grateful. Whispers spread round the audience that The Zutons should be on the main stage a T in the Park. Take the chance while you still can and see The Zutons up close and personal. |
