Showcasing the band’s second album Blink - which couldn’t be a more appropriate name as the hallucinatory soundscape Lucid Dreamers produced certainly induced a blissful dreamlike state into many of the audience.
Brigitte Beraha’s coupling of superb voice with electronic activity board created a wonderful and absorbing tapestry aided and abetted by a seriously good band. George Crowley is currently one of the country’s leading saxophone players and everything he touched on Sunday turned to gold.

Alcyona Mick was subtle and reserved throughout the evening adding nuance and effect wherever her hands landed on the keyboard. However, on the final piece of the evening she unleashed a fevered solo which drew a round of applause which you rarely get within this form of music. The highlight of the evening for myself had to be the drum solo in each set by Tim Giles - unflashy but deep and seductive a joy to experience.
The rare use of the more intimate upstairs room at the Globe seemed to further increase the ambiance of this excellent and highly enjoyable gig. Steve H
