Jess Bryant / My Brightest Diamond

Mon 28 Apr – My Brightest Diamond, Virgin Passages, Jess Bryant
Listening to the new My Brightest Diamond album ("A Thousand Shark's Teeth"), I just remembered that I never did post these pictures here of the gig a couple of months ago when my old friend (and bandmate in The Unrecorded) Ms. Jess Bryant supported My Brightest Diamond – her real-life hero – in real life.
It was one of the all time gigs. Jess was haunting and splendid, and Ms. Diamond is a great – and very likeable – live peformer too. As well as her own songs, she played a pleasing and surprising cover of "When Doves Cry" by Prince, which has been intermittently stuck in my head ever since.
...which reminds me: MBD has also recorded a rather beautiful cover version of the Radiohead song "
Lucky". It's one of my all-time favourite cover versions – almost up there with Johnny Cash's version of the Nine Inch Nails song "Hurt" – and is well worth a listen if you haven't heard it yet:
Lucky - My Brightest Diamond
