APE: JADE BIRD


Jade Bird kicked down the barn door on Sunday, on a stage she described as the biggest stage she had ever played. She steamed through most of her self-titled debut album, including the hits “Uh Huh” and “I Get No Joy”, which were as exciting as her three piece sea-blue suit. She has the knack of belting from the roof tops for louder numbers before slowing-down and singing like an angel, switching from anger to intimacy in a matter of moments. She entertained between songs, with her beaming smile and her smooth chat, clearly a little overwhelmed with the size of the crowd she’d drawn.
