Picture Show: Grace Potter @ Terminal 5

With some debate going on over the release of her next album – or rather what happened to the new album with producer T-Bone Burnett that was in the works over the summer – Grace gave fans a taste of some of the new material including the title track, Medicine, while Goodbye Kiss and Oasis topped the new songs that were inserted into the beginning of the set. While hearing the older material from Grace is always a treat, it is clear that fans are anxiously awaiting a dominating new album and some fresh material.

However, yet again the venue itself, Terminal 5, was disappointing with the lack of good sightlines which prevented half of the audience from seeing Grace as she moved over to play the organ. It still stuns me when I think that the people of The Bowery Presents who created such a wonderful venue at the Williamsburg Music Hall (from the ashes of NorthSix) were the same people who designed this monstrosity.

Grace’s 90 min set (they went 3 min over their 12 pm curfew) was a little short, filled with all the highlights, but definitely sweet. The setlist seemed vaguely familiar with the White Rabbit encore, however seeing the band onstage together all beating into Matt Burr’s drum and the crowd clapping in unison to the deeply soulful sounds of Nothing But The Water was a priceless moment.
