Glasgowbury Reviews


Over the next week or two I'm going to post some live reviews from the Glasgowbury Music Festival that happens annually in Draperstown, Northern Ireland.

First up are Ed Zealous ...

Ed Zealous, strangely relegated to the Spurs of Rock stage, played an adventurous, and richly textured bunch of songs to their steadily growing, increasingly enthralled audience. This is a band beginning to realise their potential, having found the courage to strike out beyond currently popular territory with a musical vision so grand I’m bashful in their presence. Set highlights include the Bowie-esque Getaway Cars, and the pop nuggets Pretty Face and Mario. Big things are surely on the cards for these guys. They are, as one adoring fan took the time to write in my notebook, “Deadly!”
