“We’re guna have some fun,what a day it is’ Byrne exclaimed to the crowd, before smashing out his unlikely choice of a cover rendition, ‘One Thing’ by Amerie.

The stage show was dynamic with multiple instuments centered around Byrne’s effortless and confident performance. The musicwas a mixture of bluesy vocals, which emulated’Only By The Night’era ‘Kings Of Leon’, tied in with gospel fringing.
