LIVEPOOL OLYMPIA
24TH AUGUST 2023
“A Night At Olympia” gig at Liverpool Olympia was not only a testament to his amzazing back catalogue but also his prowess as a songwriter.
The evening opened with a stripped-down acoustic set, where Bugg’s vocals and songwriting took the spotlight. With just his guitar in hand, he treated the audience to a 10-song set, featuring hits like “Strange Creatures,” “Country Song,” and “A Song About Love.” The intimacy it created in the sold-out venue was palpable. Dressed in black, like a Nottingham Johnny Cash he captivated the crowd. They sang along, word for word, as his voice filled the room. The first set wrapped with a well-deserved ovation, a tribute to Bugg’s ability to command the stage armed only with his guitar and distinct vocals.
After a brief break, the second set commenced with Bugg joined by his band. The energy surged as they launched into tracks like “Me and You” and “Simple As This.” Bugg’s undeniable talent was on full display
The setlist offered a mix of classics and fresh material, igniting the Olympia with songs like “Seen It All” and “Two Fingers” which received an amazing reaction., but it was “Broken,” that struck a chord, it was lighters held high and a singing at the top of your voice moment and the Olympia looked and sounded amazing.
Jake Bugg’s fusion of indie and country, along with his unique voice, defined the evening. His performance was captivating, his voice effortlessly filling the space. The bluesy, punchy tunes showcased his art as a songsmith, making “A Night At Olympia” more than a gig—it was a testament to Bugg’s music.
