Wandering past the local community noticeboard today my eye was caught by a poster promoting the new album of local singer/songwriter Kirsti Falconer. I’d never heard of Kirsti before but apparently she has quite a following in her local community.
Back home and on the net, discovered she is on MySpace and listened to a couple of tracks. She hesitantly describes herself as a “Melissa Etheridge without so much edge”. Hurricane has a nice bluesey sound, Believe is very folksey. I like it and wouldn’t mind hearing more.
She is playing at a combined concert at the local town hall at 8.00pm on Saturday, 28th April. I’ve marked it in my diary and my sister has just informed me she’ll come along too!
Hi Liss, I’m glad that you wrote something about Kirsti Falconer (as for some reason I thought it was going to be on the 28th of March.) But then I knew you said Saturday and now I know that we’ll be seeing her on the 28th of April.
I also heard her sing on the MySpace website and thought she was good and look forward to being at her concert at the Laidley Cultural Centre.
