Dylan LeBlanc

Tonight’s concert saw my return to the historic Minster town of Beverley for the third time this year, and my second visit to its premier live music venue, The Sun Inn, that sits within the shadow of the magnificent gothic building.

Theres something a little weird about a co-headlining show. No matter what the acts are, whichever plays first just doesnt attract the same crowd.

The faded western cantina chic of Omerea was the perfect backdrop for tonight's opening act and later Dylan LeBlanc's band The Pollies, a four piece of guitar, bass, drums and keyboards.

Here to introduce his new album Cast the Same Old Shadow – which like his 2010 debut Paupers Field is weighed down by desolation and guilt – he's all smiles and Louisiana charm.

But his first trip to London seems to have lifted the spirits of this lank-haired Louisiana native.
