GROOVE ARMADA @ WEBSTER HALL: HIGHLY CHARGED

Our brilliant guest blogger, Jennifer Prestigiacomo, attended last night’s gig and provides the following review. All photos by Alexis Maindrault. Following a DJ set by Alex English, Groove Armada’s new vocalist SaintSaviour took the stage in all of her shiny glory. She’s a mash-up between She-Ra and Punky Brewster – outfitted in a shiny, fringed leotard of armor paired with bright red hightops. GA started the night with their new album’s highly-charged ‘Look Me In The Eye Sister’. SaintSaviour powered through the amazing chorus of the night’s third song ‘Won’t Kneel’ and GA was truly underway. Throughout the night, SaintSaviour punctuated her beautifully deep vocals with wonky dance moves (the kind you do in front of your mirror at home but only SaintSaviour can make look good). It was only till the fourth tune (‘Not Forgotten’) however, that co-founders Andy Cato and Tom Findlay finally got into the ‘groove’ and started some good old fashioned fist pumping. GA did a fine job of mixing old dance pop favorites like ‘Fogma’, ‘Get Down’ (vocals by Mike Daniel), ‘Easy’ and ‘At The River’ with songs from their latest album, Black Light. ‘Superstylin’ capped off a night of pumping electro-pop and reinforced why Groove Armada continues to reign the dance floor – their chameleon-like musicality is timeless.
