And Also The Trees are no
strangers to the Greek audience. Throughout the years they have
performed live in Greece many times. Last night was their second
appearance at Death Disco club and as the first time the show was
once again sold out! This was also a very special show for the band since it was their 500th gig.Opening act was the darkwave synth duo from
Houston Texas, Tearful Moon, who are touring Europe at the moment.
The duo Tearful Moon
stepped onto the stage at 10:00pm and played a 40 minute set with
Manuel Lozano on electronics and Sky Lesco on vocals. An interesting
act that’s starting to make a name for itself with its dark synth
compositions. Singer Sky Lesco stood out with her cabaret style
blonde bob haircut. Her deep voice and her slow moves where quit
captivating. They closed their set with the track "Set Me Free"
that was featured on the "Stimmen Der Seele" compilation by
DieSeele.
After a short break,
while intro music prepared us, And Also The Trees walked through the
crowd and took to the stage at 11:00pm. As always, elegantly dressed,
the band took their positions and started off in the best of ways
with "Slow Pulse Boy". And as if things couldn't get any better
"Dialogue" was played second. This band has through the
years showcased a rare quality. Away from trends and the mainstream
spotlight they have managed to gain a loving and loyal following.
Brothers Simon and Justin Jones always know how to deliver on stage.
Together with the new members, they performed as they always do with
passion. Just to name a few tracks since one tends to get lost in the
moment, they played "Your Guess", "Untangled Man"
the older "Wallpaper Dying" was a pleasant surprise and
"Gone..Like The Swallows" sounded majestic as ever. After
leaving the stage, they returned for an encore with the classic
"Virus Meadow" leaving the crowd clapping and cheering for
more.
