Last nights audience at Down By The River #10 were treated to fantastic performances by Jess Vincent & Luke Tuchscherer.

Jess is a wonderfully unique talent! She played songs from her back catalogue as well as previewing tracks from her upcoming album which judging by last nights performance is going to be exceptional. Jess was backed to stunning effect by Hannah Krakiecs beautiful harmony vocals and Joe Chowles inventive, atmospheric guitar playing.

Luke was playing his last show in the UK before moving to New York and he delivered a performance to remember. Evoking the spirit of some of the greats (Springsteen, Earle, Petty) Lukes songwriting is both classic and contemporary, he had the crowd singing along even before the encore by which time they were truly won over.

A huge thanks once again to everyone who attended and great to see all the new faces ... You make the night what it is.
Look forward to the next one, see you all at Barnabas arts house, Newport on Saturday 25th November.
Cheers Tim (Blind River Scare)
