The Christians, Gig Review. Liverpool Philharmonic Hall.

Originally published by L.S. Media. September 11th 2010.

One of the last times The Christians came to Liverpool was to perform at the Liverpool Academy and even though the band went down well that night, there seemed to be something missing from the overall experience that audiences expect from one of Liverpool’s finest and most respected bands.

Anything that was sadly remiss on that balmy summer’s night in 2009 was put right by having the band in a setting which suited their style and laid back harmonic approach such as the Philharmonic.

The Christians music may be soulful, laid back and with a message delivered in the song that few can come close to matching, however just because a band may sound serene on C.D. doesn’t mean that their gigs are nothing short of exciting and jaw  dropping.

Mix that in with the heady and close atmosphere of Eric’s and the result is one of a powder keg of brilliant music, stunning vocals and just that little fission that makes nights like this worth going out and getting a taste of the Liverpool nightlife and those that inhabit it.
