Boomer Audience

No Carla – I was reviewing, This is what I wrote:

The first set has 25 year old Tara Carragher playing solo acoustic versions of songs from what feels like the ‘sacred canon’ of Dylan’s early work. She is joined on stage for the second set by a first rate band in a show that is all class. Carragher does a fine job of interpreting and delivering Dylan’s songs. Why did she take on the task of a Dylan tribute show? Because “he meant everything he wrote” she told us. And she clearly means what she sings. There is something immensely satisfying about listening to a group of Gen X/Y musicians deliver new renditions of famous songs to a much older audience that grew up with those songs. I found the whole experience quite emotional – because the songs are great, they are beautifully arranged, played and sung, and the baton is being passed on to a new generation. As it should be. Great stuff.
