With a Grammy and 20 years experience in the music industry under her belt, Paula Cole is one of the most experienced singer/songwriters out there right now. Although over the years Cole’s had problems with record labels going out of business, and other barriers in her career, she has without fail, made it out the other end of every obstacle even stronger than before.
The venue was intimate, and therefore there wasn’t a bad view in the house, everyone could see and hear Cole perfectly. The speakers were positioned well so that even though we were on the side, the acoustics were great. She’s a humble artist, and when she took to the stage with nothing but a warm hello and her guitar, the audience hushed in anticipation. What we then heard was more than we were expecting. She opened with Feelin Love, which was sang beautifully, and I realised that she’s one of the very few artists who sound even better live than on their studio records.
Paula played a great selection of her tracks, from old to new, and it was especially great when she played some new tracks. Although she’s been performing for years, this shows in experience rather than a tired performance, she really was at the top of her game.
