music review
The Jamestown Union and Samantha Horwill
The Brunswick
The Jamestown Union are country, and I love country. Add to that, these guys are great live. Lead singer Matt Hopwood is the epitome of what lead singers should be - self-assured, totally immersed in the music, super cute and barefoot, love it. The music was an energetic upbeat guitar-led set of popular/country influenced music, which would appeal to more than just die-hard rednecks (like myself). Joining the band was special guest female vocalist Samantha Horwill who sang such beautiful harmonies that I thought she was an integral part of the band. The venue, The Brunswick, is a really nice size, small enough to feel intimate, and that complemented the band, and heightened their allure.
