Let’s keep this brief- Martha Wainwright was the only reason worth going to Girl Friday’s thoroughly mediocre showcase at the Southbank Centre. Her 30 minute acoustic set showcased her husky, powerful vocals perfectly and if the incessant chatter of morons at the bar came close to inciting me to murder, the sheer quality of her intensely personal songs made the experience a bearable one. Kudos also to Dockers MC, a Brixton-based spoken word artist who, against all expectations, was a witty and likeable performer, but the rest of the evening was pretty forgettable.(Photo: Youneedtoseethese (Flickr))
