It Doesn’t Get Better: City and Colour at the 9:30 Club

A few months back, a good friend in DC turned me on to City and Colour from Canadian singer Dallas Green. I’ve been shooting a lot of shows lately and thought maybe I was losing interest. A few words into Green’s first song at the 9:30 Club and I realized that the other shows just haven’t been that good.

Green stands out as an incredible talent (though his CDs don’t do his voice justice) and has a calm, funny stage presence that I appreciated after seeing plenty of fidgety hipsters awkwardly chitchat their way through the rare moments between songs.
