Live E.P review of Pengilly's

Hello everyone,

I have recently wrote a review of a Leeds band that people should really look into. They are unsigned, but have recently released an outstanding E.P that is beautiful and glorious. Please check them out, and enjoy my review.


Pengilly’s E.P launch
Left bank centre
1st June 2011


The band soon take to the stage with a glorious opening from a superb choir, with vocals from Ric Hollingberry and co, singing a hymn that opens this wonderful and magical evening. It gives a taste of what is to come, and the crowd can’t wait.

They then launch in to Toby’s Hill with its light vocals and soothing lyrics, you can’t help but watch them, and be mesmerized by this spectacular performance. The setting of the left bank centre is perfect for this band the acoustics just bounce off one another, leading the audience to a very powerful show.

Ode VIII has soft finger picking guitar parts, which helps lead you on a journey with this band. The stage was rather on the small side, but was not an issue for this rather large, yet beautifully instrumental band, they all took their parts and enticed this crowd spectacularly.

 As the night flowed and the sun setting leaving the fairy lights to do the job, this group of extraordinary people made each, and everyone in the room feel like it was just them watching this band.

Further on we are in treated to a cover version of Jason Derulo’s “Whatcha say”. Wondering how this was going to work when I heard the opening chords and not sure if they were going to do the original, they soon set to work making this their own and succeeded. You ever get a chance to see Pengilly’s then I suggest you do.
