Donovan Frankereiter... wow!

Last night at Element we were lucky enough to go and see Donovan Frankenreiter, his band and Gary Jules as special guest. What a treat. Some of you may not know Donovan Frankenreiter others will.



To put it plainly this guy is the dude. He oozes talent and he also surfs. Dammit some people get all the skills!

If you don't know Donovan Frankenreiter here is a great song from him...



Gary Jules was also great to see... he is very funny and engaging with the audience. You may have heard his re-working of the Tears For Fears song Mad World...



Over 11 million hits on youtube... thanks for coming.

Plus he had a really cool jacket and hat!




One of my favourite things about music is sense of place and time. Last night Donovan Frankenreiter played a song called 'Free'. This was the song that was played right at the end of our wedding ceremony. It was so good for Zoe and I to see him do that live. Sense of place and time! We were right back there.

You can't embed that video but it is worth watching because he does some cool surfing in it and the song features Jack Johnson.

So quite frankly Donovan you are my hero and thanks for being so damn awesome.
