A day of hazy rain, black ice and sleet, nothing was getting in the way of sold out Night Moves show at Turf Club in St. Paul. It’s the final show of 2019 for these Minnesota legends and they did not disappoint. Starting off a brilliant 14 song set with “Can You Really Find Me”, the title track of their release from June 28th on Domino Records. Sota's finest blends an easy listening 70/80s style of Little River Band and Christopher Cross.
Night Moves performed a well-balanced set after their 3rd release (Can You Really Find Me) playing around five tracks from every album. The crowd was involved the whole night raising their glasses, singing along, and dancing the night away. Lead singer John Pelant voice has transformed remarkably over the years. With a shoegazy UK influence, the vocals blew me away on “Waiting for the Symphony” and “Border on Border”. John's got the classic lead vocalist look with crazy range. He'll go from high pitch harmonies to belting out lengthy Verve/Oasis-esque choruses. Switching off from guitar and keys he impressed the crowd every minute with fellow high school friend/bassist Micky Alfano. The crowded roared near the end of the set screaming, “one more song” and were rewarded with two.
Full Track List from the set Can You Really Find Me”, “Headlights”, “Mexico”, “Colored Emotions”, “Recollections”, “Horses”, “Border on Border”, “Waiting for the Symphony”, “Strands Align”, “Leave Your Light On”, “Carl Sagan”, “Denise, Dont Wanna See You Cry”, and “Ribboned Skies” (Photo Below).
Was blessed to see these guys back in 2012, a few times at SXSW over the years, and they get better every time!!! This is easily a top 5 Minnesota band at the moment. For fans of Portugal the Man, The Music, any bad-ass Rock N Roll band!
