A rarity indeed, for this ended up feeling like one of the most perfect music gigs I have been to. A stunning voice, backed by sparse but thoughtful accompaniment, plenty of laughs and personality, an enthusiastic , appreciative audience who enjoyed a bit of a singalong. What more could you ask for?
With John Lowrie on piano, and Innes White providing guitar and backing vocals, Rarity sang somgs from both her solo albums, and a few more besides. The purity of her voice is enhanced by the simplicity of the accompaniment, but both musicians got a chance to do sols that showed what they're capable of. And Hannah is a relaxed performer, informative on the songs and often funny. Plenty of emotion too, as she introduced Scotland Yet, and we remebered what might have been.
Wonderful.
