I'm a fan of the songs and of the person. Since this was a solo performance, i.e., just Olivia and her guitar and amp, I was well pleased! I felt I got to see the real Olivia as opposed to the stage persona. Because of this lack of pressure to perform a show as a band I caught a different vibe - a personal one, a more exposed, honest and vulnerable one. I felt I saw something of Olivia's heart and in the new songs there's definitely more personal emotional content - to me at least.
The songs are great: melodic, energetic, honest, strong. The transference of Olivia's energy through her hard strumming and gentle plucking was a real pleasure to witness, especially in an intimate venue like The Waiting Room. And I love the sound of her voice!
Vive Olympia (Olivia)!
