Face Of Cheam

Eliza was the lead singer of mid to late nineties band Bellatrix who I used to go and see. After a decade I have rediscovered she has a solo career and this was the first opportunity I had to go and see her. She did a six song set of around forty minutes and showed she has not lost her Icelandic quirkiness. She started with the catchy 'Ukulele Song' played on the Ukulele of course. She then told a story about hopw Al-Jazera called her up when the Iceland volcano caused all of the travel problems as to how to pronounce Eyjafjallajokull so she wrote a song that people like and she now has to play! Very twee it was two. The last three songs were rokier and back to the sound of her Bellatrix days. She continued her Star Wars obssession (like Bellatrixs Jedi Wannabe) by ending with Maybe We'll Meet In A Star Wars Bar with a catchy chorus at the end. The only downisde to this was the low turnout of around fifteen people when clearly she deserves a bigger audience.
