Liam Bailey, the Bungalow, Austin, Saturday 15 March 2014, SXSW 2014

Liam played a funky set of bluesy rock overlaid with soul style vocals. Some of the songs made us think of Led Zeppelin, the White Stripes and 60s British R’n’B. His second song opened with a guitar lick reminiscent of Sergeant Pepper. We really enjoyed the set, Liam is a compelling performer. Watching his material was like discovering classic rock and rhythm’n’blues material you’d somehow never come across. We would be keen to check out more of his material.
