Myles Kennedy chose Cape Town to kick off his solo album tour Year of the Tiger, and what a special show it was. The stripped down 2-hour set featured solo material from the new album as well as acoustic reworkings of classic (and more obscure) tracks by his bands Alter Bridge and The Mayfield. There were a few other interesting covers thrown in too including Elton John’s Levon, the final encore of the night.
The crowd singing along to the oohs and aahs of Alter Bridge’s Open Your Eyes was magical, and a highlight that sticks with me, but the whole evening felt so intimate, it was as if we were all close friends just hanging out as Myles shared his laughter, stories and soul with us.
