The Tapestry

The Tapestry on stage. Before it got wild.

On Friday, after gaining our bearings of the festival site, or at least after we thought we had, we went back to Tim Peaks to settle down with an ice tea and quietly observe the next band performing.  Having no previous experience with The Tapestry or any of their gigs we had no idea what to expect.

Before we even stepped through the muddy entrance to Tim Peaks, we were handed numerous pin badges promoting the band. Free badges? Great start, we were beginning to like them already.

Within minutes of starting the Manchester quartet had all of Tim Peaks on their feet rocking along to their amazing set. The place was packed to the brim with not only regular ‘Kendal Callers’ but with The Tapestry’s own dedicated fans, who sang along to every word that the main vocalist, Liam, sang. We couldn’t understand how we hadn’t heard of them before, they were great, clearly as seen by their besotted fans taking over the diner.

 Dressed casually the bassist, Katy, rocked out seemingly enjoying the great atmosphere the band created in the Diner. The whole band seemed laid back and comfortable, really focused on their songs and putting on a great performance, which they did plus more.  Their gig was enjoyed by all who saw them, not a bored or un-amused face in the room.           

As normal, the residents of Tim Peaks loved the whole set and couldn’t be happier with another great band that Tim Burgess had yet again chosen extremely well.
