BOSCAWEN PARK, TRURO (6TH AUGUST)



THE TRUTHS

The last time I saw The Truths was at The High Rollers gig a few months back and I recall thinking how they did a great version of Ian Brown and of saying that the singer had the best vocals of the night. I think, on that night, the band was unsuited to the audience and struggled to hold the indie rock kids, even though The Truths were performing like kings.

Today was a different kettle of sealife and the band were magnificent!

The Truths were abso-fucking-lutely stunning!

World class, without a shadow of a doubt. Their groove was exactly right on the line - perfect for the scorching afternoon. I saw a similar performance from the Stereo MCs a month ago at a steaming hot festival and loved every minute of it. This is where The Truths really come into their own; putting the roll on the afternoon sun, giving a slope to the air and a grin to the gentle breeze. The sound balance was excellent and the levels just right to enable the band to fill the open area with their class music. Oh and the voice is still there, by the way!

Excellent!
