Maeve Community Coffee House Danbury, CT. March 15th, 2008 Absolute perfection in every way possible is the only way to describe the performance by Maeve that I saw last night! I had seen the band once before about five years ago at a gig in New York City and remember being very impressed by them back then. What would this night be like though? I had heard about the Community Coffee House in Danbury, CT. for the past few years, as a good place to see a concert, but had never made the effort to make the road trip to get there. Maeve being based out of Boston rarely makes it south to New York. So when I saw they were but a mere ninety minute drive away on a Saturday night my mind was made up. I gathered together a group of like-minded music lovers and we headed out for an evening of music and merriment. The trip proceeded without much traffic and we arrived in time to go to a local place called "Elmo's Diner" to grab a bite to eat before the show. After dinner we headed over to the concert venue, an old church building with great acoustics, very nice indeed.
If you are unfamiliar with Maeve then you need to check out their website at www.maevemusic.com. You need, if you are a lover of good music, to get their music and add it to your collection. Chris MacIntosh aka Grandfather Rock

Maeve
is a female trio consisting of Rollyn Zoubek on vocals, guitar and percussion,
Courtney Reid on vocals, guitar and percussion and Rachel Taylor on vocals,
guitar, keyboards and percussion. Rather than one lead singer with two
backup vocalists the girls trade off lead vocals as well as backing each
other up. If you are at all familiar with the music of The Lost Dogs then
you will understand what I mean. Intricate harmonies crisp instrumentation
and intelligent lyrics are all part of the Maeve repertoire. The girls
were particularly tight this night in every way from their playing to singing
to the between song banter. The song list for the night consisted of:
