Summer Concert Series
Personally, this was an exciting assignment for me – covering the 94.7 Fresh Artist Concert Series at Tysons Corner Center. Better than Ezra has been putting out hit singles since I was in college. Their songs had a sound that I identify with that time in my life. I looked forward to hearing them perform live! Before they took the stage, they had a meet and greet with some fans that won the chance to see them and have their photos taken. What I did not know was that all the members of the band have a great sense of humor! The fans that met them up close had a good time with their antics, and they made for some great photos. Visit the Tysons Corner Center Facebook page to see all of them!
When they took the stage, they did not disappoint! They sounded terrific in the Plaza. With the sound setup, the reverb off the buildings, and the singing from the crowd it was a nice evening of music. I always wonder what songwriters think when they take the stage in front of a crowd of people that have not seen them before, or in an area that they do not visit often, and the audience knows all the words and melodies of a song. This is a composition that started as a unique thought in your head, and through the modern distribution of communication and media, it is now a collective memory over so many!
Better that Ezra played all of their recognizable hits along with their new singles. “A Lifetime”, “Extraordinary”, “Good” – it was awesome to hear live, and I really had to remember to keep taking photos! Two more Fridays will have concerts in the series, so be sure to get your wristbands at Tysons before they are gone!
