Sam Bailey and Daughters of Davis<\/p>\n

at the De Montfort Hall<\/p>\n

Music in Leicester was at the De Montfort Hall today for sell-out show. Headlined by Leicester singer Sam Bailey, the support act was Daughters of Davis.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Daughters<\/a>
Daughters of Davis – Adrienne and Farn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The two singers – Adrienne and Fern Davis – put on a superbly good performance in the first half of the evening.<\/p>\n

We loved their chirpy stage act and beautifully harmonised singing. After opening with their take on Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean<\/em>, the girls went on to deliver a very appealing set of songs. In between the songs, they talked about their life on the road, as they toured the country going to gigs.  A very likeable and entertaining act, we hope that Daughters of Davis will be back in Leicester some day – I think a lot of the people here tonight would like to see them again.<\/p>\n

See our report on Sam Bailey<\/strong> at the De Montfort Hall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are the photos taken by our photographer Kevin Gaughan \u00a9 at the show:<\/p>\n
