Kissaway Trail

Odense is the city of Christian Andersen, the third biggest city in Denmark.
Denmark is a small country consisting of a load of islands. The island of Fyn is found between the Danish peninsula Jylland and the island where Copenhagen is found: Sjælland.
You would be probably wondering the reason of this short lecture on Danish geography. Well, just to introduce you to the concert i saw yesterday night.
In fact, the Kissaway Trail are from Odense, and yesterday they played at the StudentHouse in Aalborg. Yesterday i've been working at the door until 11, while the support band was playing. Then i could enjoy the headliner concert. Good. Pretty good. I liked it. I knew a couple of their songs, they are strongly influenced by Arcade Fire. A friend of mine also said by the Mew, another Danish band, but i am not that convinced.
The concert was pretty good, a bit slow maybe, the songs sounded even more mild than in the album, while i would have apprecieated a little bit of additional rhythm.
The concert hall wasn't that full, i thought there would have been a lot more people, as the band has been touring in the US, and now is playing all around Europe. NME radio broadcasts its songs daily, and reviews of their gigs can be found in many musical blogs.
Always more and more surprised and impressed by the musical scene of this lille dansk land.

So, now have a taste.
