Last week I caught another great show at the Beachland Tavern. Scanning for new bands / shows (as I often do), I ran across Caroline Smith & The Good Night Sleeps and was instantly taken by her voice. I was instantly sold on the show, and the $5 price tag was just right. Opening was Bethesda, an NEO band. I think they had a lot of good qualities, but I'm not sure I really dug the vocals. They're a fun, young band though… I hope they do well.
Next up was… well, this is kinda embarrassing. Next up was Caroline Smith & the The Good Night Sleeps, but I didn't realize it until their last song. While I had been checking out their album, i wasn't really familiar with their work. And throw in the fact that any videos I had seen of Caroline she had dark brown hair - also, I had no idea who Humble Home was, and thought they might have a female lead singer as well - and the Beachland listed Caroline as the headliner! So I was really thrown off, and chalked it up to the last two bands being similar. I instantly liked what I heard and thoroughly liked the last performance (and was looking for a whole 'nother set of great female vocals). Last song comes and I hear it's Caroline… Der. Still, a great performance, and possibly an earlier night than expected!
Finally, the real Humble Home took the stage. Caught a couple songs from these local guys, but took the chance to get home a bit early. These guys weren't too bad… (especially on the eyes). ;-)
