They shared the stage with rock group Silverbird, as they both opened for Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Robby Krieger of The Doors.
The band opened with “Life of a Thief,” which ironically enough, is the opening cut of their latest album. It was followed by the up-tempo and melodic “Let Your Hair Down.” Despite a few vituperative words, their rendition of “The Devil Came Up to Boston” was upbeat and witty.
“Burn Brightly” was acoustic-driven and soothing, while “14 Days” was laid-back and mellow. Adam Ezra Group closed their six-song set with “Steal Your Daughter,” a track from their latest album Better Than Bootleg, Vol. 2. This tune displayed the band’s talent as a whole as Corinna Smith was electrifying on fiddle, and Ezra nailed the vocals, acoustic guitar and concluded with a banjo solo. Turtle, Josh Gold, Alex Martin and Francis Hickey from the band were exceptional as well.
The Verdict
Adam Ezra Group’s show at The Paramount garnered 4 out of 5 stars. They were able to put on a high-energy and fun concert for the Long Island audience, as they opened for a living rock legend.
