They officially broke up in 2001 but lead singer/songwriter’s Greg Dulli’s side project, The Twilight Singers continually evolved. A host of musicians including Ani DiFranco, Petra Haden, Apollonia and the late, great Mark Lanegan all contributed to Twilight Singers albums.

Not content to rest on his laurels by focusing on songs from the distant past, the set included five songs from 2017’s In Spades and five from the brand new How Do You Burn? along with “The Tide” from Dulli’s first-ever officially released solo album, 2020’s Random Desire and they all sounded great.

On a Friday night (5/13) where rain kept the typical crowds away from downtown Orlando, middle-aged rock fans packed The Social to see Cincinnati veterans The Afghan Whigs. With no opening act and minimal lighting, the band delivered a no-frills 90-minute set that highlighted what the rockers do well.
