Make Trade Fair Live Review
Watching a mixture of marvellous bands play their music to an appreciative crowd is a great night out anytime, but when the gig is taking place to raise funds and awareness for a good cause, the atmosphere is heightened even more. And what a ravishingly good line-up Oxfam organised for MAKE TRADE FAIR LIVE this September.
An eclectic mix of upfront rock, exquisite acoustics, sumptous RnB came in the form of Razorlight, Minnie Driver, Jamelia, The Thrills and Music Gods themselves, the incredible REM! And with the ever-lovely Dermy presenting the evening, we were in for a real treat.
Razorlight got the crowd well and truly in the mood with their gloriously upbeat new single Vice, and crowd-pleasing Golden Touch (bloody ace!) among others, before Jamelia appeared on stage with a voice and costume of an angel.
She apologised to those who might not have come to see her sing, but she needn't have bothered, as the whole crowd sang along to hits, Thank You, Superstar and the Chris-Martin penned A Boy's Eyes, before Johnny Razorlight bounded back on to join Jamelia for a giggly duet of Blondie's Heart Of Glass.
