About 5 years ago. Used to go to at least a couple of gigs every month, but then my "circumstances changed" as they say. Really miss it, but not a lot I can do about it really. Ho hum...
Shelby Lynne
Saturday 25th February 2012
Union Chapel, London

This was a bit special and to be honest quite an emotional evening for all those present. Shelby played the entire gig solo, just her and a guitar to a very well behaved and respectful audience in the wonderful setting of Union Chapel. The sound was perfect and Shelby's voice was literally spellbinding at times. I have seen many female vocalists including the likes of Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and k.d. lang but last night Shelby proved she is right up there with the very best. She openly talked about some of the more personal elements of her past, which I have not heard her do before and this really drew the audience in, as I doubt there was anyone in the room that doesn't know her history. Her performance of 'Heaven's Only Days Down The Road' was particularly poignant and prompted rousing applause and you could clearly see Shelby was moved. This song refers to when Shelby was 17 and her father shot her mother on the driveway in front of Shelby and her sister (Alison Moorer), before turning the gun on himself and committing suicide.
The show lasted around 1¾ hours and comprised a large chunk of her new album Revelation Road, together with some favourites from her back catalogue. I have seen Shelby before but last night was something of a one off I think, I got the feeling she has laid a few demons to rest and is revealing the real Shelby Lynne.
