Cold In Berlin

A bill of female fronted bands that have ‘substance’ to their sound

First up Mystified, a band I’ve been hearing good things about. They have a great stage presence and a pretty heavy rock sound. They were good but I was expecting better. If I’d seen them without the recommendations I think I would have been more impressed. I’d be happy to see them again if they’re supporting somebody, but there I didn’t feel there was enough in their music to make me feel like I need to hear them multiple times.

Next up where for me the main act, Saint Agnes. Last year I found they where a band that got better and better with each gig as they honed their set. Now, they’ve perfected it, they’re a fantastic live band well worth catching.

Closing the evening were Cold In Berlin. I’d seen the. About five years ago but honestly couldn’t remember much about them. They have a heavy goth rock sound. The lead singer holding it together making it interesting through her expressive performance.
