ASBURY PARK, NJ-
“… Kaleo- the Icelandic rock band known for its soulful sound- graced the sands of Asbury Park on Sunday, bringing a high energy set. Kaleo, truly walks the lines of its genre, at times being a full-blown rock outfit, and at other times having a mellow folky vibe.
Kaleo has only been a band since 2012 but has accomplished quite a lot in a short amount of time, including a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Performance in 2017. Let’s not forget that their album A/B has sold almost one million records globally.
Kaleo opened up with “All the Pretty Girls” off the bands standout album A/B, a song of sadness, compassion and hope with an almost eerie acoustically driven spiritual delivery, that had a reflective / silencing kind of effect on the crowd. I found Kaleo to be an incredibly stylistically diverse band, going from song to song having a completely different sound, from the bluesy guitar work and vocals of “Broken Bones” to the rocking beats and driving guitars of “Hot Blood” and “No Good” this band is truly special …”
