Unintentional low profile gigs remind me of busking: Unpretentious, raw, yet still a demand for attention. Musicians are more honest during their humble beginnings, and quietly confident grafter Izzy Veron testified to this when I rolled up to The Fiddlers Elbow - a fitting modest setting detached from the buzz of Camden.
Izzy managed to blur the punk-postered venue to set a potent chill R&B feel. Among the supportive accolades and braps from friends, Izzy led us through the emotions of three self-written tracks. Conveying desire via voyeuristic lust in Alien Boy, Izzy wrapped the set up with He Said (Acoustic), her most worked on track (prod. by Enjay) which she noticeably came alive in that narrates the echoes of the deeply felt past we hear on second track, Reminisce:
Izzy, centre-stage, remains a strong voice to resuscitate UK R&B
I need to wake up in about three hours, get in the shower, gotta go to work, 'cause I like getting money...
Striking the correct chords in her ability to vibe and emote an independent South London sass that resonated through Fiddlers, pouncing wall-to-wall of a venue with room to be filled. Guided by the impressive capabilities of guitarist Elliott Blackler and drummer Tom Clarke, Izzy kept it short, sweet and effective in her particular range of timeless romantic tales. Check out the one on false promises, her debut video He Said:
