These are some video clips and still shots from an amazing evening at The Greek Church.
I'm sort of a live music fanatic that's seen 1,000s of bands over the years, from dive bars to clubs to arenas to stadiums and everything in between, but tonight was something completely different for me. This was incredible! There's a magic that you get hearing these live voices bouncing off of the acoustics of the Greek Cathedral ceiling that you can't capture through a PA system of seeing a live band. This was really phenomenal!
What a great experience!
If something like this happens again, be sure not to miss it!!
Enjoy!
