Up first was Kittie Harloe. She came on stage and I immediate thought of Lara Flynn Boyle's Twin Peaks days. Maybe that was due to some sultry looks that she gave the audience. This being her first set, she started out a touch tentative. Then she moved into a style where one wouldn't have been surprised if she picked up a wine glass and calmly held it while singing. She let it be known that she works at Zebulon. Some of her co-workers hung off to the side, showing their support.

Shannon Lay closed out the night. It was nice to catch her set again, especially since she was only able to do a two night December residency at The Echo. It was a chill set. She even invited the audience to sit on the floor. Folks took her up on her suggestion. All that was needed were some pillows and blankets. I swear, a couple of her songs will have you thinking Enya. Just seriously amazing. As at The Echo, fellow Feels bandmate Laena Geronimo backed her up on violin. There was an amusing moment where after one song, Shannon admitted that she played the song in the wrong key and was surprised that Laena went with it perfectly. After her set ended, I overheard someone mention to a friend, "I'm so happy you got me to come out tonight."
