When Valentine’s Day falls on a Thursday, the weekend
sometimes begins early. Such was the case this week, as I headed down to the
Redstone Room for a special V-Day concert with The Candymakers and Joe
Robinson. This was a seated show, and I arrived early enough to secure a seat
in the front row, although I didn’t stay seated for long. The Candymakers began the evening with an
acoustic set, adjusting their blues and funk sound to a mellow, yet soulful
show. Their vocals were especially smooth with the acoustic sound.
