Quarantine Online Sets: Version 12

On Sunday, Ariel Beesley did an Instagram Live interview on Ladygunn. I tuned in late, but did get on early enough to catch her sing a couple of her songs. She played a song on her keys and another on her ukulele. She had a huge smile and was full of cheer. It was nice to see on a Sunday.

Wednesday was dedicated to WFNM. Disco Shrine opened the night with some dance moves. It got the blood flowing for the night. I've known Disco Shrine for years and she's always been so awesome with helping me out with various requests throughout the years. 19 and You dialed in from Australia. They did an acoustic version of their song Runnin'. Three members of the band our currently in Australia while the fourth is in the United States. Patrick Martin then did a set from, I believe he mentioned, Wisconsin. He left Los Angeles to write some tunes and then coronavirus broke out across the United States. I'm not going to lie, but the surprise was róisin marie. The set started off with Instagram Live focused on a darkened, slightly reddish room. I think it got Grant Owen (of WFNM) a little confused as he was wondering where she was. Without even a word, she walked into the frame and started her soulful-techno music. I have no clue where she comes from, but I do want to catch a live set. Tulliah ended my night on WFNM's Instagram Live. She's an 18 year in Australia. She has vocals that stayed in perfect pitch. Just wonderful.

Thursday started off with Fiona Grey. She was doing an interview with Lauren Ruth Ward, but closed out the interview singing a couple of her songs. She sang a favorite of mine, "Saviour." And then she closed it out with the song "Kerosene." A couple hours later it was off to catch Livingmore on Jam in the Van. They didn't play in the official van, but did hang out in their own SUV on a very hot day in Los Angeles. Three of the four members jammed in the hot SUV. They made it clear that the three of them lived together. The fourth member wasn't there in order to practice social distancing. For the last couple songs, they actually had to close a couple of the doors, because a neighbor was hanging around and I guess they felt he was being a bit on the strange side. It must have gotten hot in the SUV for the last few songs. For the last couple years, Livingmore is one of the bands that I've seen multiple times. This year, oh well, I got to catch them doing an online set.
