Amelia Coburn support from Robyn Errico
The rain was relentless in Liverpool and the distinct chill of the bar was certainly not the case inside the Stockroom. The heat from the sold out crowd was added to by firstly Robyn Errico who was the perfect support for Amelia.
For fans of Kate Bush, Tori Amos and Portishead, Darlington-based Robyn Errico eased us in with her unique brand of nouveau pop blends progressive, ethereal and cinematic elements with haunting, melodic vocals and powerful, evocative songwriting. She draws on a diverse catalogue of songs written over the course of her life.
She shifts between vulnerable and powerful, through song she navigates existential themes relating to purpose, reality, truth and finding our own place in this beautifully complex world. She brought us material from her second EP Through the Gap (2026). We will definitely have her back with Urban Roots.
Then of course we were treated to the glorious folk-horror from Amelia. She eased through her repertoire of amazing songs drawing inspiration from gothic literature and the shadowy allure of film noir. From quiet darkness at the heart of many of her songs, full of vivid characters and nocturnal creatures mostly from “between the moon and the milkman”.
She brought her mix of honest, occasionally hilarious and quintessentially north-eastern persona to warm us and charm us. The packed audience was keen to join in and we ended with the fabulous version of Weller's Done in the Tube Station.
She now moves on to support the Proclaimers and Paul Weller this summer and of course a new album.
