The venue was packed from wall to wall with some of Bruno’s biggest fans, eagerly awaiting his appearance on stage. Opening the show was singer songwriter Eloise Lamb who played a range of acoustic originals, warming up the crowd and setting the tone for the gig. The tone of her voice alongside the deep, yet at the same time lighthearted, song lyrics give her a unique innocence and sense of vulnerability when she performs, making her easy for the audience to connect with through her music. After her opening set she then joined Bruno on stage, playing keyboard and singing backing vocals.
Major has a real talent for writing songs that relate to everyday situations such as love and heartbreak. He played songs from his newest album “A Song For Every Moon”. Bruno explained that his mentality for this album was that he didn’t want to wait around to release music so he challenged himself to release a new song every month for a year. The result of this personal challenge was a variety of songs that portray events that were happening at those specific times in his life.
After the opening number Bruno made a quick apology to fans as he’d fallen ill the day before and was worried in case this affected his performance and he jokingly said his fans may need to step in for him later on in the show. Though ill this did not stop him putting on a first class show for fans.
