On the second date of her short current tour, Fenne Lily is due to take centre stage at the Louisiana on Saturday, February 3. Being a Bristol based artist, it’s certainly going to be a homecoming for her, and it's also her first show with her newly assembled band. With both her and the band coming from Bristol, it will surely be a special fixture ahead of her 21-date album release tour. Before the album comes out on April 6, you can guarantee a night of stunning vocals and beautiful music.

Having been a Bristol resident for over two years now, Fenne Lily has had a residency at the Gallimaufry and also played an atmospheric show at the Lord Mayors Chapel, as well as being a regular at many other venues across the city. 

Once her album is released Fenne Lily will traverse not only the UK and Ireland, but she will cross the waters to the east and demonstrate her haunting melodies and driving rhythm guitar to the good folk of the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

With all that said, what can you expect from a Fenne Lily show? Aside from beautifully crafted stories in the form of songs, her onstage manner is so unassuming that when she begins to perform you are arrested into stillness, transfixed by her performance.

The underlying electronic edge to her music is a subtle counterbalance to the delicate acoustic guitar and soft yet powerful vocal. On ‘For a While’, for example, it lends an atmosphere of threat and urgency to an otherwise starkly revealing emotional outpouring. 

‘On Hold’ provides a familiar indie feel at the start of the track with its clean electric guitar, but by the time the slightly driven lead of the middle 8 kicks in, it gives us an otherworldly shiver that has already been hinted at by the brief choral interludes prior to each chorus.

Fenne Lily is an artist that you will watch for the first time and walk away in a state of mesmerisation. You will leave the concert having been seduced by her endearing demeanour. Her show at The Louisiana this Saturday night is definitely not one to miss.
