Viewers of Grey's Anatomy and those who have listened to any of the accompanying soundtracks will be familiar with the sound of Foy Vance. The difference here is a stunning performance of five songs accompanied by Ulster's 70-piece Symphony Orchestra. Each of the songs on 'Live At The Waterfront, Belfast' provides a unique insight into a unique performer. The tracks are something of an aural sandwich or a feast for the ears, whichever you prefer. The top slice: "Gabriel And The Vagabond" is Foy's best known work, a poetic piece about a supernatural encounter with a tramp. The bottom slice: "Indiscriminate Act Of Kindness", is a little over six minutes of a performance that leaves you wishing you'd seen and heard the whole thing live. This is a great introduction to Foy's music. Do try and see this man in concert. In the meantime, let this EP whet your appetite.
