Come From Away Philadelphia Theatre reviews
Great artists, great songs never grow old...
Come From Away is one of my all time favorite artists, and watching him perform live was an experience to remember. The venue at Royce Hall-UCLA was quite good too. For me, the best part was that all he needed was a guitar and piano to perform, letting the audience focus on his singing talent instead of being distracted by a full band. I wasn't there for the food, but I wasn't too impressed with the paltry and mediocre food choices at the cafe. Anyway, he played all his classic songs (viz. Everything I do, Heaven, Summer of 69, etc.). Come From Away Rocks! And he didn't disappoint.
