Giselle Woo...After Dark at the Purple Room
The Purple Room's New Late Night Series welcomes Giselle Woo. After Dark Features local, indie and touring bands, or amazing DJs each week.
Giselle Woo: "There she was, center stage, handling her acoustic guitar like she spent more time with it than without. David Macias was on lead guitar playing riffs at the speed of sound while still injecting soul into each note. Erik Mouness, a drummer who is endearing and as fun to watch as he is to listen to, was putting all of himself into every song no matter what the tempo. The gifted Brandon Henderson was obviously enjoying himself as he sat in for regular bassist Andy Gorrill. Giselle Woo, a naturally pretty girl, completely lacking in assumption and diva flair (a good thing in my opinion), commanded the stage like she'd been doing this for 20 years. Not in a show biz kind of way, but like she was at home. She closed her eyes and opened her mouth and out came this velvety voice that soared from the depths of her heart effortlessly.
Her voice, wrought with emotion, not the kind that is contrived but what happens when the voice and heart are connected, was as easy to listen to as butter is to eat. Surrounded by these insanely talented musicians, she was the perfect storyteller to songs that were sung in both Spanish and English. She easily transitioned from soulful ballads to raw energy rock, all of which were an apparent fusion of her musical culture and contemporary influences. It was a kind of Latin zydeco if you will, with a touch of jazz to smooth it all out." - Lisa Morgan, CV Weekly
