| These are the judges comments for Andrew's solo effort at the Murdoch Band Comp. It was only the third time he's played in front of a proper audience on his own. Originality of Material "I heard influences, like us all music styles rub off, yet you had your own distinctive style" "I think you need to improve your guitar playing a bit more, it'd be great to see you expand your style a bit more, it certainly needs a bit more spice to get to the original territory." Musicianship "Your voice is good but could do with a bit of training. The guitar is fairly rough, but still passable." "Good" Stage Presence "A decent balance between calm and intensity, but perhaps not quite special enough." "OK" Audience Response "The audience loved you, but were'nt going wild with adoration, could do with a bit more of the in-between song banter." "Good" General "A good start with many promising elements, all that's needed is that bit of polish and thought that comes with practice." "Plenty of dynamics, colour tension, resolution light and shade. Lyrics were thoughtful and interesting. Good arrangement and composition." |
