Dawes : A Review
"When My Time Comes" performed at the Arroyo Seco Weekend is beautiful and haunting. The lead singer Taylor Goldsmith has a somber but powerful approach that welcomes the crowds to sing along. Taylor's brother Griffin takes the audience to subtle yet explosive sounds on his drums and vocals.
The lead singer Taylor Goldsmith though is under the impression nobody actually knew who his band was. He was happy so many people decided to listen to him before the Alabama Shakes and Tom Petty concert.
His voice is solid and his band seems to love the idea of jamming on stage. People love music no matter how big or famous they are.
