Antony and the Johnsons The Sage Gateshead 29th May 2009
A strange one this. Antony’s voice is like no other. Laura says it is the most musical concert she has been to. His songs are quite jazzy and have a strange quality to them. He is backed by a band with sring players as well as drums, guitar etc. Antony was very chatty and the audience loved him. He told us how he was conceived in Sunderland (!) and told the story of Jesus as a Girl coming down from the mountain.
