The Swedish husband-and-wife team Andreas Werliin and Mariam Wallentin weave spells with percussion and voice: Wallentin huskily intoning as her spouse attacks his drumkit with alternate restraint and abandon.
Situated opposite Liverpool Street Station on the edge of the City its terracotta facade is a wonderfully anachronistic sight amongst the shiny glass of modern office blocks.
This first glimpse of the stage insinuated that we were to witness something special tonight and once Miriam and Andreas, along with their ten-plus support band Shards, all poured on stage, it’s an anticipation that’s quickly reinforced.
Don’t let their jazz school educations; Andreas Werliin’s inventive percussive lines, or Mariam Wallentin’s artful vocal-slurs, tell you any different.
The turnout at the Waldorf for the Gothenburg duo's latest Vancouver show started off disappointing low, no doubt owing to the fact that half of Vancouver was downtown celebrating the Canucks' victory in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals.
