Kelda Feb, 13 @ Club Lingerie
Great atmosphere and outstanding music is what Kelda is best known for and Thursday night’s performance at Club Lingerie was no exception. Taking everyone through a high energy musical journey, Kelda created an enjoyable environment for any souls seeking a night of stimulating music. The clubs intimate setting with several lounge couches around the room, complimented the performance and made the listener feel as though Kelda’s music had been brought right into their own home.
With a slight twist to the orchestration, the music takes on a distinctive sound but one that is still familiar enough to grow in today’s market. Musicians Andrew Zlacier (Cello), Geoff Jost (Bass), and Tim Hunter (Drums) do good justice to the music in the mutual understanding that sometimes less is more. Kelda (Vocals, piano, and song writer) occasionally walks away and substitutes the striking of the keys on her piano, for the strings on the guitar to give the song just what it needs. The songs are well crafted with catchy melodies and good musical arrangements; Kelda’s voice is very lively and can be tender at the songs request. Some songs have a similar, but not exact sound to Tori Amos and Sarah Mclachlan and a bit of The Corrs.
The beautiful red dress on Kelda and the bands high class suits went very well for the Valentine's weekend. Kelda interacted with the audience, throwing out heart candy, which happened to be really good!! I know because I got some. Just as the crowd thought the night ended, Kelda threw a twist. As the audience requested an encore, the band obliged and went back on stage to close the night, with "Crazy" taking the closing spot.
With songs like “Fairytale” & “Crazy” you can be sure that Kelda’s name is one that you will be hearing more of as she keeps moving forward in her career.
