Brilliant gig, wonderful band.
Due to complications around Covid and illness in the band we'd been waiting a couple of years to attend this gig, but it was certainly worth the wait. The band were polished but not lifeless, the playlist was drawn from old and new, in the interaction with the audience felt warm and intimate. Just what I want from a live band.......and what songs!!

Great band on top form
If you know Belle & Sebastian you already love them, so seeing them live is the cherry on the cake. If you haven't seen them live yet jump to it!
They absolutely smashed it at the Liverpool Olympia - banger after banger with no let-up. The audience was treated to almost a "best of" compilation from their extensive back catalogue, and even the new tracks were welcome (possibly thanks to lockdown, as the new album came out last year, so the crowd knew the music anyway).
A great night was had by the crowd, by the band, and even by the bar staff who were boogying away behind the counters.
