sings
Kira Skov in Lethargic, the second song at the
fabulous performance at Pumpehuset that rainy evening in November.
And so she did! Lethargic was the last word you would use to
describe the show, which was among the best I have attented in my
life! It is no overstatement to say that this was a performance you'll
remember the rest of your lifetime! I have never seen Janis
Joplin live on stage (except for on recorded footage), but
I believe that this is the closest you'll ever get to that same experience
of desperate intensity from a great talented artist. The
band brought me back to the late sixties. It was like attending a
concert with Big Brother and The Holding Company, or
sometimes even soul king, Otis Redding, with all the
pure soul feeling, given with such a strength that it's obvious to
name lead singer Kira Skov as the Danish Janis
Joplin!!It
was evident that Kira loved to expose herself on stage, and she radiated
desperation and energy from the first second of the performance to
the very end. And as to be seen on the pictures below, she had a strong
sex appeal as well. |
