If you were to ask me what the band actually sounded like it would definitely be a head scratching moment but the closest comparison would be Muse merged with ELO add a bit of Hammond organ, a splash of The Who and multiply it with a drilling Red Hot Chilli Peppers bass line and that would only be a very slight taste of the action. But whilst watching the singer dart up and down move back and fourth I realised these guys put on a breath taking rock 'n' roll show.

You feel the energy through the performance and through the riffs, each one making everyone in the room tap, clap, bob, bounce or whatever it took to physically move, it was genius.

Thankfully the show didn't make time fly when you were having fun, instead it stopped time and for a few hours we all had the chance to appreciate what we have musically in the local area. Slightly less disheartened by the fact I had to leave, I realised that The Sesh was going to be there every week for a long time to come. The next chance I get to come back and see something as equally entertaining as last night's performance will hopefully be in the near future. Brilliant.
