Subject: Live at Glee Club supporting It's Jo & Danny
The folk duo of Jo and Danny, organisers of the Green Man festival, are headlining a mini-Green Man tour, where the support act in each city is a band on this year's festival bill.
Opening proceedings for this show are Birmingham collective Shady Bard. With an extraordinarily accomplished EP already under their belts, the trio's gentle psych-folk shimmers and soars in equal measure.
With an electric piano as the focal point, their radiant folk-pop is embellished by cello, violin and harp. From the Ground Up is stately and elegant, while Memory Tree is a woozy lullaby worthy of Grandaddy, its near-whispered harmonies cracked and bewitching.
