Alabama 3

Live reviews

• Hailing from Brixton, England, since 1995, Alabama 3, also known as A3 in the United States, achieved great fame when the creators of the hit HBO original series, The Sopranos, decided to use their song "Woke Up This Morning" as the show's opening theme song. Covering a mixture of genres such as electronica, rock, blues, country and jazz, Alabama 3 can greatly and fully enthrall the audience.

  On stage, the band is composed of eight members in total. Nick Reynolds AKA Harpo Strangelove delivers the rugged, blues-induced sounds of his harmonica throughout many songs. Rob Spragg AKA Larry Love and Jake Black AKA The Very Reverend Dr. D. Wayne Love deliver deep, enticing vocals and the lovely Aurora Dawn provides additional vocals. Mark Sams AKA Rock Freebase provides riveting guitar and bass guitar work while Orlando Harrison AKA The Spirit provides keyboard and keyboard bass. All of the members become readily unified on songs like "Too Sick To Pray" and "Keep Your Shades On" as all vocal parts are met in harmony with the rolling bass and beat underneath. These are powerful performances from the heart and soul and the audience can feel it through and through. Alabama 3 are absolutely legendary.

• Very disappointing, considering we’ve seen Alabama 3 before and always came away buzzing. The sound was awful, with lots of feedback, vocals and guitars could hardly be heard, completely dominated by drums. Not only the sound engineers but the band members weren’t on form, it felt like they were just doing their job and very little energy or chemistry could be felt on stage. We came out feeling completely flat.

• It was a fantastic performance by A3,they we're tight as f@#k and played all there hits! It was a small venue but that only made the night more personal.I took my 14 year old daughter with me, it was her fist ever gig and she thoroughly enjoyed herself. I highly recommend going to see the old raver's as there music is still relevant today.

• I saw them back in May. Absolutely brilliant live band with great stage presence and character, and also looked like they were having as much fun as the crowd. Belted out all their biggest hits and had the entire crowd dancing, laying down their sweet pretty country acid house music all night long! Can't wait to see them again.
