Full of sparkle and fireworks, the three musicians of this Leicester band their lead singer had considerable command of the microphone. I have seen this band several times before and they have started to really impress me. With their razor-sharp timing and songs that were volcanic in their impact, it was difficult to believe that only three musicians could generation such a large sound. Their songs had the audience punching the air with their fists. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The lead vocalist, Joel Hughes, \u00a0has a rack of 3 guitars on the stage and he changes his instrument to suit the song.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6164\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6164\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Blood-Sugar-March-25-Shed.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6164\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Blood-Sugar-March-25-Shed-600x400.jpg?resize=600%2C400\" alt=\"Blood Sugar at The Shed on March 25th Photo RhinoFeroSs\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Blood-Sugar-March-25-Shed.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Blood-Sugar-March-25-Shed.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6164\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Blood Sugar at The Shed on March 25th<br \/>Photo RhinoFeroSs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/glastonbudgetauditions2015\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Blood Sugar<\/strong> played at the Glastonbudget auditions in February<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6166\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6166\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/El-Violento-Frankie-Shed-2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6166\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/El-Violento-Frankie-Shed-2-400x600.jpg?resize=400%2C600\" alt=\"El Violento Frankie (Spain) at The Shed Photo RhinoFeroSs \" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/El-Violento-Frankie-Shed-2.jpg?resize=400%2C600&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/El-Violento-Frankie-Shed-2.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/El-Violento-Frankie-Shed-2.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6166\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">El Violento Frankie (Spain) at The Shed<br \/>Photo RhinoFeroSs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>El Violento Frankie<\/strong>, from Spain; one of three touring bands on stage tonight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ElViolentoFrankie\" target=\"_blank\">Find out more about El Violento Frankie on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6173\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6173\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/old-house-playground-shed-march-25.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6173\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/old-house-playground-shed-march-25-400x600.jpg?resize=400%2C600\" alt=\"Old House Playground at The Shed on March 25th Photo RhinoFeroSs\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/old-house-playground-shed-march-25.jpg?resize=400%2C600&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/old-house-playground-shed-march-25.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.musicinleicester.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/old-house-playground-shed-march-25.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6173\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Old House Playground at The Shed on March 25th<br \/>Photo RhinoFeroSs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Old House Playground<\/strong> another of the touring bands at tonight&#8217;s gig.<\/p>\n<p>Jamie Borland was in charge of the stage lighting tonight; it made a big difference.<\/p>\n<p>Our photographer RhinoFeroSs took many more pictures at tonight&#8217;s show.

Tonight Wisner gave us another superb performance of his songs. This young singer, songwriter enthralled the audience with his own compositions.

An accomplished work, <em>Screens<\/em> has listenable vocals and Wisner delivered it with his usual sensitivity of touch and charm. In his song <em>Apologise<\/em>, Wisner invites the audience to join in with the chorus; he ended his set with <em>Nights Like These<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reubenwisnermusic\" target=\"_blank\">Reuben Wisner on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Sitting at the keyboard <strong>Hannah McNally<\/strong> started her set with a slow song that demonstrated her vocal abilities.

Jamie Thompson and Tomas Ward have been chums since their school days and got together as a duo in November 2013&#8230;and they class their genre as Acoustic Folk Pop. Tonight they livened up the room with music that was blessed with energy and ear-grabbing sounds. Their two good voices were backed with instrumentation that had plenty of punch and verve both from the guitar and from drums. Two likeable artists who presented themselves with an engaging sense of humour. Wonderful.

When it comes to singers who leave an indelible impression, none can compare with Nile McGregor. When he played at the obsUnplugged in January, I wrote:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The evening finished with a set from Nile McGregor. One of Leicester\u2019s notable musical personalities, there is so much one could say about him. He told the audience that he never makes a set list \u2013 he just gets up and sings his songs. McGregor sings with feeling, playing his guitar which is covered in stickers that he calls his \u201cmemories.\u201d He has had his guitar for ten year, he told us. Powered with passion, McGregor described his genre as \u201cangry folk\u201d and is clearly a master of the impact-ballad. His songs were received by the crowd with considerable enthusiasm. Magnificent.
