Artist: Marker Starling
Songs: Move it On + Strong Suit
Recorded at The Tranzac (Southern Cross Lounge), September 29, 2019.
This Sunday afternoon special managed to tick off several agenda items all at once. It was an opportunity to draw out a crowd you wouldn't see at night, and the room was filled with happy parents and kids of all ages. But the show served primarily as an opportunity for Chris Cummings and band to get in a dress rehearsal before a primo opening slot for the reunited Stereolab in Montreal — a pairing that makes additional sense when you know that Cummings and the groop's Lætitia Sadier have appeared on each other's albums. That meant the band's set was a tight and punchy affair, focused on the hits that might win over unfamiliar ears. (Before that, the afternoon started off with a solo set from Cummings, and some new material did manage to slip into both.)
