[DID NOT ATTEND: November 13, 2021] Half Waif / Lightning Bug
I have wanted to see Half Waif for a couple of years. I’ve heard her live shows are great. And a venue like Johnny Brenda’s would probably be perfect for her intimate songs.
Initially I wanted to see this tour (back in May, and then October) because Ian Chang was opening for her and he is an amazing drummer whom I need to see live.
But that didn’t take away from my desire to see Half Waif as well. But this show happened right in the middle of a bunch of other shows and I try not to do too many nights in a row.
It transpired that most of the shows were cancelled anyway, but I had pretty much committed to being home so I didn’t go. But she’s fairly local so I hope she plays again soon. With any opener.
Half Waif is the project of former Pinegrove singer Nandi Rose. I find her music very pleasing.
Lightning Bug is the project of Audrey Kang (although I believe she has a full band now). She sings lovely, quiet songs, which seems like it would be a nice companion to Half Waif’s music.
