Field Trip '14 - Chvrches - Fort York (June 8)

With a lit stage prop, including two zed's as the base of the two male's synth stands, Chvrches took to the stage. Out burst their pint-sized leading lady for a punchy set of a good selection of their debut album. Mostly synth/sample/bass-led, her job was to belt it out, and so she did except that one tune where the guy came out from behind the stand to magic-dance while singing. Between songs they mostly bantered about their favourite Canadian music artists, teasing an Alanis karaoke session that never materialized. It wasn't a hugely spectacular show, nor did it vary much from the recorded material but it was enjoyable nonetheless.
