Lucy Rose's final U.S. date for this Fall 2013 took place last night at the Amsterdam Bar and Hall in Saint Paul.
Singer/songwriter Katy Vernon opened up the show, she is actually British-born, but is currently living in the U.S.
Vernon dedicated "Play" to Lucy Rose, fitting with the lyrics "sing to me". Because we were at the Amsterdam Bar & Hall, it reminded her of how she met her husband (leaving Amsterdam) and she wrote about it in her song "Better For You."
They actually list five other songs, but the band ended with "This Is It", possibly due to starting the show a little later than scheduled.
So, Lucy Rose is back in the U.S. This time with a full backing band (previously she was performing by herself). The extra band members definitely gave Rose's music a fuller sound.
Rose followed her setlist for the majority of it. That is until she reached "Be Alright", she then gave the audience the choice of hearing that song or "Night Bus". She was going to omit one of those songs, and the audience overwhelming chose the latter song. The band then played "Night Bus" per request. They were then going to play the title track of her album Middle of the Bed, but the guitar tuner had not prepared for that song yet (because he was going off their setlist). So they went ahead and played "Be Alright" anyway!
Highlight of the set was either the obvious choice of "Middle of the Bed" or "All I Got" (which required handclapping along).
Someone in the audience requested "Scar", which they played after "Shiver". Rose said she had not played that song in over a year, so she was having a hard time remembering the lyrics. After a few minutes of working it out, they played the song. "Thank you for making me play that," Rose commented, "that was very fun."
As for encores, due to requests, the band played "Don't You Worry", followed by a song I did not recognize. Then the band left Rose by herself. Rose finally said, "If you are happy, you should leave now, because this song is depressing…" as she started to play the first few notes to "Gamble."
Lucy Rose is flying back to England as I write this. She's currently working on new songs for an upcoming album, which she admitted was hard now that she's been signed to a record label. Before, she would just record whatever she wanted, but now she has to get approval from the label first. Rose's debut album Like I Used is out now.
