The Swell Season

Show date: 28 May 2025

Setlist

My main experience with The Swell Season was seeing the movie Once. I was really impressed by the show. Glen and Markéta are great songwriters and the whole band is extremely talented.

Near the end they brought up The Web Sisters to do a few songs. They did a cover of Who by Fire by Leonard Cohen which was really good.

At the end of the show they brought up a young woman from the audience who sang a song with them. She was really good and looked like this even was the highlight of her life. It was really wonderful to see.

As an encore Glen and Markéta came out and sang a song unamplified at the edge of the stage.

Overall it was a great show. I really enjoyed the venue. The seats were great. Being so close to the stage was really fun, but the seats were a bit uncomfortable.
