The xx – Corner Hotel
Listening to The xx’s debut album is kind of like getting a new crush, or falling asleep wrapped in a cashmere blanket after a long day swimming in the sea… Listening to The xx live, though, is even better.
Passion Pit – Corner Hotel
The super-hyped US quintet put on a short but fairy-floss sweet performance that had an elated crowd singing and jumping and clapping and dancing in absolute ecstasy.
Live: Colin Hay – Corner Hotel
Watching and listening to the Scottish Australian American is an interesting experience...
Live: Dan Auerbach – Corner Hotel
In these days of big festivals, the once-popular triple bill has all but disappeared. But the Corner hosted a revival - a solid three-band offering featuring Hacienda, Tony Joe White and Dan Auerbach.
Live: Evan Dando – Corner Hotel
Nobody is better able to capture the essence of the three-minute love song than former Lemonheads frontman, Evan Dando. This isn't a throwaway line - it's a statement of fact.
Live: Sia – Corner Hotel
If Sia is not one of the best singers around then so help me - soulful, energetic and ridiculously talented, the local songstress sounds even better live than she does on record.
