Shawn Evans and Dahlia Fernandes have lot of fans who admire their talent and their genre of music. They draw crowds from the young to the old, wherever they play. And last night was no exception when they took the stage at The Free Times Cafe in Toronto. The popular downtown café, known for supporting talented artists, was filled with the soulful sounds of their unique artistry.
Shawn sang the first set, rendering his touching compositions on his guitar. He always wins the crowd over with his signature scatting and moving lyrics . He welcomed the talented Marco De La Cruz, who added the groovy bass to Shawn’s original track ‘Better Because of You’. It was great to see that the crowd felt just as I did – inspired and happy especially to his two big hits 'Monkey Boy' and 'Song for Her'.
Dahlia Fernandes took over the second set with her usual suave voice, singing her own old and new compositions, and also her previously released hit song on her debut video release 'Tomorrow Tonight'. The vocal depth and lyrical beauty of Dahlia’s music was brought to life by Shawn Evans, who accompanied her on the rhythm guitar with some staggering array of guitar chord changes, and Marco De La Cruz ‘s artistic vibe on his one-of-a-kind 4-string electric upright bass.
During the entire evening, both Shawn and Dahlia, provided their fans with their usual cool and infectious humour as they shared the meaning and expression of their compositions - as well as adding some new arrangement, delivery and colour to the cover versions of popular songs.
