Chrissy and Rick give their all to their show and this was no exception.
A brilliant gig in the most intimate of settings..it was wonderful to chat with them after the concert, share some experiences and not least get my hands on a 'gold' vinyl Hotel Utopia album.
I love this band; do go and see them, their music is excellent and they are lovely friendly people.

Just awesome. The Blackheart Orchestra deliver a Wonderful and unique brand of music which literally takes your breath away. The show was an absolute delight after which they spent time with their audience. Not very often do you get to chat to the very people who have just made your evening, Chrissy and Rick did just that. I'd go to their show every night were that possible. If you fancy something really different and want entertainment at a new level you really must see this band. Excellent.

About The Blackheart Orchestra
The Blackheart Orchestra are multi-award winning, multi-instrumentalists
Chrissy Mostyn and Rick Plkington. They comprise a two person ‘orchestra’
playing up to 13 instruments in their unique live show. From their onstage
‘musical space station’ they create highly emotional contemporary rock music
featuring a multitude of sounds and atmospheres from acoustic and electric
guitars, bass and bowed guitar to piano, organ, vintage synthesisers,
omnichord, melodica and electric percussion.
They have been described as a modern day Pink Floyd with influences from
as far afield as Kate Bush, Portishead and Cocteau Twins to modern
composers Steve Reich and Philip Glass. They combine their folk and rock
roots with electronica and classical with Genesis founder Steve Hackett
calling their music “Powerful and inspiring”.
Their last two albums both achieved Top 20 positions with latest album Hotel
Utopia charting at #13 in the UK and winning Best British Album, Best Song
and Best Female Vocalist in the USA Progressive Rock Awards. The
Blackheart Orchestra currently sits on six Best Albums of The Year lists in the
UK.
