The Webb Sisters - Concert by dynamic performers and multi-instrumentalists who sang with Leonard Cohen on his recent world tour. He described them as "the sublime Webb Sisters" and they certainly lived up to their reputation as one of the leading folk singers of our time. With a style all their own and using a harp, a 100-year old mandolin and a guitar, they are sometimes reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel. Their singing is at once wistful and strong and their voices harmonise to perfection. A packed audience enjoyed a really wonderful concert. |
