A Fine Frenzy, led by the lovely Alison Sudol on vocals, finished
their residency at the Coronet Theatre here in Los Angeles at
Largo last month, to great success. “It’s always been
a dream of mine to play here,” Alison stated, “And
I’m so happy to have made that dream come true, even
better, with a residency. The L.A. native sold out a string of
dates at the high profile venue, frequented by famous comedians,
with a final sold out date in which the adoring crowd soaked up
every melody of her peaceful charm, and angel like voice.
Alternating between sitting for a stripped down acoustic set, to
walking over to play piano, the audience was adoring when she let
loose a stunning rendition of her hit ballad ‘Almost
Lover’ from her debut album ‘One Cell In the
Sea,’ with soulful passion. Girls and guys alike in the
theatre had teary eyes. After new material from her latest
‘Bomb In A Birdcage,’ including her dancy new single
‘Electric Twist,’ and new material from her upcoming
album not yet even recorded, Alison closed the blissful set with
three memorable covers by Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, and the
Beatles.
Afterwards, Alison and the band generously came outside on the
patio to meet and greet every single one of their hundreds of
fans on this cool, Los Angeles night. Her kindness of spirit is
not only evident in her music, but also off stage. If you have
not gotten her work, check out A Fine Frenzy now and support an
incredibly talented artist.
