James Vincent McMorrow delivers heavenly Windmill Live set
James Vincent McMorrow at The Iveagh Gardens, Dublin – Friday 11th June, 2021
Look – it's been one hell of a year. We've all become best mates with the four walls of our homes.
The first half of the night showcased McMorrow's latest album True Care in its entirety and then McMorrow was back for more with a second set of fan favourites pulled from his three previous albums.
Looking eerily like a Van Gogh self-portrait, with his ginger facial hair and broad-brimmed straw hat, the Irish singer/songwriter received a boisterous reception from the audience.
McMorrow is undeniably an incredibly talent artist: lyrically poignant and more than capable of holding a crowd, yet even he struggled to maintain that attention for the entire night.
The locally-reared singer, fresh from the surprise release of new record ‘True Care’, appeared sincerely humbled by the occasion; his biggest Irish show to date, the biggest number of people who ever paid money specifically to come and see me.
I thought about this as James took to the stage in the packed Triffid hangar (3 March), while Roy Ayers’ 'Everybody Loves The Sunshine' welcomed his Amish-looking silhouette on stage.
