We left early
by Andrew on 2022-12-19The Studio - HamiltonI saw Chantal a few years ago solo in Huntsville and liked her style and music. I am an amatuer musician and play a coupe of her songs. She was music focused and kibitzed appropriately with the audience. It was a nice intimate. I was wondering what playing with Raine would be like. Their son cam out first and he was good for an 18 year old but unexpected. Decent original music and a good cover of Maroon5 Sunday Morning. There was then a 40 minute break until Chantal and Raine came on. They are both very good musicians but their styles are totally different and doing one every other song meant they never got any momentum. There was also an inordinate about of chatter from Chantal with little or frustrated response from Raine. No stage chemistry. Even worse Chantal would actually joke with the audience in the middle of her songs interfering with the songs integrity. It was bizarre. We only heard one song we knew and decided to leave early. I have never done that before. I will say some of the audience seemed engaged and enjoyed the show so maybe its just us. It was not what we expected and not the level of professionalism expected for tow talented and experienced artists. Disappointing.
