La la la - Lissie

I have seen Lissie before at ACL and really enjoyed her raw earthy vibe. So when I found out I would be seeing her again, I was pretty excited! She performed at The Parish in New Orleans. This was the first time I attended a concert at The Parish and I have to say it is a spectacular venue because of its intimate setting. After walking up a set of wooden stairs and opening the heavy doors, Dylan Leblanc's voice hits me and as I instinctively look towards the music, I notice Dylan on stage singing. What really got me was the 40 people sitting down on the floor as if we were all sitting in someone's living room. It felt very organic. Great atmosphere. By the time Lissie got on stage, everyone -- about 100 people, I may be exaggerating -- were all standing. Lissie's performance Tuesday night was different from that at ACL. It may have been the venue but whatever it was M puts it perfectly, "I left the concert really feeling as if I really got to know her and you don't get that with many concerts." 

M and I went with Dustin and Rian of 2bearnest. Check out their review here
