Bonny Light Horseman, 2.11.21, The Strathmore
Half empty venue, I always forget what a gorgeous place that is… but damn, what a dead environment of blue hairs shuffling people around combo’d with not serving drinks due to #Covid.
I don’t recall when this originally went onsale that it was a bill doubled as Anais Mitchell with Bonny Light Horseman. I’m pretty sure that changed at some point, but I could be wrong. The BLH set was beautiful and I could listen to them play music all night. I can’t say for sure, but I’d say they played most of their material.
A quick set break to well… Do nothing and then Anais played a set. While very talented, not my bag at all… Kind of reminded me of a angsty 90’s rock singer song writer combined with maybe Ani DiFranco. She also has a strange tick where she flails here arm in the air every other stanza. All in all, the tri of musicians that make up BLH are incredible, however, don’t think I’ll ever go see them again.
