whilst everyone is probably busy following the winter Olympics in Sochi, there was this superb ‘World Vocal championship’ taking place on Thursday in the East London. Though this gig seemed to be sold out and venue was too small for everyone who came to get a seat, i wish this gig attracted attention it really deserved. Randolph Matthews and Cleveland Watkiss are amazing British singers individually and their solo gigs can alone be an amazing experience, but when they are both on the stage together – it’s double amazing! Playful vocal battle mixed with jokes and supported by a choir demonstrated their virtuosity, improvisation skills and masterful use of voice.
Just few days after this gig (this was the first time they did such a duo gig, as far as i know) there has been created a special facebook page VocalRumbles, so i guess and i hope this amazing collaboration will continue offering many more vocal battles. Check them out!
Price: 12.50GBP
Duration: 2 hours gig
Amazingness: great + great
