Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
To dislike ME and Deboe is to have the same outlook as a block of stone being chipped away by the most inept and undedicated of Masons, for just to be in front of Mercy Elise and Sarah Deboe is to understand that music is the most perfect of pursuits.

Revolution and even evolution can be triggered by adversity, the moment in which personal hardship or disaster upon a species or a country can be the catalyst in which change happens. Revolution is not something to be feared, unless you are the oppressor, if you are the one in which is placing your boot upon a human face, revolution is only wrong when the incorrect dogma takes a fall and evolution is as inevitable as empires crashing to dust eventually.

If ever there is a time in someone’s life in which you can say to someone, “Wow, I am impressed with the dedication to the cause”, then to come on stage and play magnificently just after the heart, brain and soul have been swamped with the overwhelming emotions of becoming a parent for the first time is probably that time.

Niamh Jones is a woman with such a sparkling voice that it is no wonder at the age of 15 she was given the opportunity to impress all who attend the highly respected nights hosted by the people at Liverpool Acoustic. Two years on, Niamh Jones is something special to behold, and inside The Bluecoat on an August day which betrayed the thought of blistering sunshine blasting its rays upon the multitude of people making their way to take in a day of music, Niamh Jones again showed the reason why she is thought of so well.
