Boomla’s debut show has arrived!! Arriving at the POW to see a band I’ve not heard of is always an experience.
The stage was set up with room for many - 11 muso’s and one ballerina to be precise.
The great lead vocals came from Syrene, in one of the most eclectic outfits I’ve seen on a singer. She had a voice a girl would die for, well not literally but almost!
All other band members wore old fashioned outfits which included vests, hats, ties and braces, all very fitting. The two gorgeous female backing vocalists grooved and danced all night with beaming smiles - when you looked at them one couldn’t help smiling back.
I was told that one or two members of Boomla play with Gotye. The lights were not spectacular but kinda suited the band and flowed well with the music. Their backdrops of rain and flowers were enchanting to watch. Include an instrumental, guitar solo and violin solo, a girl dancing for a few songs, an amazing front singer, excellent backing singers and you have one excellent show from an up and coming band. A top night out was had by all.

Boomla supported maceo Parker last week. what a night. not only did we get the best man in groove (Maceo), but we got the best groove support act - Boomla. They are a local band with international potential. Even Maceo thanked them singing - Just Gimme some more Boomla - Wow - Great to see!
