So I’ve shot at St. David’s Episcopal before, but never in a concert setting…usually someone’s getting married. But hearing a concert here was amazing. The bands included: Matt Pryor, The Candle Thieves, Lissie, Jakob Dylan, Black Prairie, and The Low Anthem. The theme of this showcase was folk and Americana, and the setting was perfect. The acoustics of St. David’s were outstanding, and hearing someone like Lissie belt out her powerful songs still gives me shivers. The Candle Thieves were a lot of fun because they incorporated a lot of props and toy instruments. And of course, Jakob Dylan. Everyone was here to see him, and he definitely delivered. I think this concert was a highlight of the entire SXSW for me, because it was A)indoors and B)had a seated audience that wasn’t fighting me for a good position.
