Oh Wonder e Wrabel

Excellent. Oh, what a Wonderful (see what I did there) live performance. They were able to showcase their musicality with an acoustic rendition of Midnight Moon. Glad to have been there for their FIRST show in the US!

Stephen Wrabel started his set on a stool with a guitar saying, “I guess I’ll just start since I’m here.” We soon found out that he was going through his set off-list, keeping everyone including himself guessing at which song would be next. Wrabel, his chosen moniker in the industry, told us he wrote that first song (“Lullaby”) about a week ago and had to teach himself to play that guitar if he wanted to perform it tonight. Honesty is definitely a theme throughout his lyrics and you can hear it in his vocals. He then goes over to the piano, his usual means of conveyance, to give us “All or Nothing”, a song about taking a beat to “try to breathe” because “you’ll always find your way back somehow.”
