My Tiger Lilly 'Affair'

          Tiger Lilly - Half Moon, Putney - 3rd March 2014

Kerpow! 
Stage lights went up, the band struck up, Tiger Lilly took to the mic and lit up the stage with her own glow and inner light....

Yep, Tiger Lilly http://www.tigerlillymusic.co.uk/ was back in London Town for the final date of her tour. Not just ANY venue though, it was the legendary Half Moon in Putney. http://www.halfmoon.co.uk/

The night was of an Oscars theme & everyone had embraced this. Lovely flowing dresses, sparkles, shimmers & shiny shoes.

So there she was.....Mic in hand, striking full length red dress, dark shiny hair cascading down, hot red lipstick & a twinkle in her eye..... This was going to be fun.....and it was!

The track 'Affair' was upbeat & funky & my favorite track of the night.
The lyrics ran through my mind, the bass ran through my soul, and Tiger Lilly sang it with passion & her band threw themselves into every note.     Here is the official video for >>> 'Affair' -Tiger Lilly   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xyfcveF-So  

I found my foot tapping, my head nodding and a huge smile on my face through the whole set. 
There were sexy shimmers n shakes, moves  n grooves & good interaction including dedicating tracks to people who had come all the way from Leeds and other supporters in the audience. 

Thoroughly enjoying each track I wondered in my mind why I seemed so mesmerized by her performance....

*Reason 1- I was near the front of the stage so it is easy to be in that zone & block off everything around me, it's a zone I like.
*Reason 2 - It was hard to take your eyes off Tiger Lilly, she looked sharp & stunning yet elegant.
*Reason 3 - Sounds good yet there is something different, a certain maturity in both her voice and performance shone through. It felt as if we got to hear & see the real 'her'. It was a pleasure to share in that. 
*Reason 4 - The band was 'tight on the night'...they looked and sounded content together as a unit & sparked well off each other.... 
*Reason 5 - It was a smokin' hot performance! 



We were humbly thanked. Thanked for coming out on a Monday night & for the support...but you know what? I'm glad I went out on that Monday night, glad I chose to stick with the plan, glad the plan came together.... 
I'm enjoying the direction her music is going in & also find her very inspiring in many aspects of life.
Looking forward to hearing more and more from Tiger Lilly and if you get the chance do go and see her.>>> http://www.tigerlillymusic.co.uk/ and follow her on Twitter -  @tigerlillytweet
