Emotions running high

Crowded House were praised for their “emotion-drenched performance” at The Greek Theatre in an LA Times review. LA Times: “[T]he group’s exquisitely crafted songs are infinitely rich with melodic and harmonic invention but lyrically enigmatic enough to require fans to be active participants and fill in the missing puzzle pieces to reach their own conclusions. That gives the songs, mostly written by Finn, a deliciously long shelf life. And if you’re going to be in a band, it might as well be one that’s worth keeping around.” Crowded House reformed early this year, with new drummer Matt Sherrod joining the line-up of Neil Finn, Nick Seymour and Mark Hart.
