Review: Katy Moffatt, The Maze
DOWNPOURS probably kept some likely punters at home. But nothing, not even a leaky roof on arrival, could dampen the spirits of Texan redhead Katy Moffatt.
This was the basic line-up of a girl and her guitar, a consummate musician with a true, full-throated voice. The way she embellishes a line has few equals.
Headed by Midnight Radio, her first group of pieces included a syncopated This Heart, from Up Close And Personal.
Soon she was inviting requests, obliging with the a-cappella Texas Ranger. It was followed by a John Hiatt song of travel and a brand-new number evoking the desert winds in Moffatt’s adopted state of California.
Walkin’ On The Moon, an early hit, launched a second set as varied and rewarding as the first. Moffatt hit her stride in a medley of rocking cowboy and thoughtful love ballads. The figures of veteran Jimmy McGrew and maverick Hank Williams were both remembered in music.
Among further requests, Highwayman provided a vigorous take on Phil Ochs’s setting of the text. The performance closed with an atmospheric cameo, Evangeline Hotel. Moffatt couldn’t fill empty seats, but she left no empty hearts.
