English singer/songwriter Robyn Hitchcock is so multi-talented; to be more exact he is a guitarist, pianist, and also plays the harmonica and bass guitar. As part of The Soft Boys, he started he was able to branch off and start his own solo career, a career that has included a very solid cult following of fans.
Since he has a history going back to the 70s, the variable types of fans that came to his live show range in so many age groups. Armed with his guitar, he strolls onto the stage, which is met with a solid applause. He just seems like the epitome of cool. As he begins to play his first song, you can see him fall completely into the song. Every emotion comes through and touches you through to the core. Between each song he engages the audience with a thank you first, will tell a little anecdote or background on the next song. His lyrics are so touching because they are so raw and real. He also includes a bit of comedy in his songs. Overall, Robyn Hitchcock’s show includes so many elements, that it can appeal to a broad group of people of all ages.
