Stubs: # 223 – Alejandro Escovedo, Wellington, 2019

I don’t usually write about a show for Stubs the same year that it happens – but I’m doing this here now with Alejandro Escovedo in place of an actual review. I didn’t review the show – but I did love it. I chose not to review it because I didn’t make it there at the start, didn’t see the whole […]

Gig Review: Gemma Ray (May 6, Wgtn)

Gemma Ray Caroline Saturday, May 6 The British-born, Berlin-based Gemma Ray was in town for a few shows on the back of an Australian tour.
