Stella Silvansky Live @ Moon Embers!


Stella took the Moon Embers stage tonight at 6pm SLT and by 6:01pm SLT I was blown away. If you haven't seen or heard Stella perform in second life - please stop whatever you are doing and contact Sarah Yorkshire for scheduling and fees. :)
You have to experience Stella's show to know how wonderful SL musicians can be. Think seeing live concerts in a virtual world is a waste of time?
I so beg to differ.
I have seen quite a few good live shows here then please go see Stella and have your mind forever changed. I requested Lisa Loeb - She played Stay for me and Lisa herself would have been proud of her rendition. I stood, I howled, I clapped, I cried at one point at a song so beautiful I missed the name of it and I am positive that if in five seconds (Though I am exhausted) I would stand up, dust off and head to the next show without missing a beat.
Ok so let's get into my actual review for our fabulous Moon embers, shall we?

Stella Silvansky was a one woman rebiks cube of amazement. Her songs included covers from Lisa Loeb, Adele, Suzanne Vega (yeah she went there and did Tom's diner awesomely.) She is also willing to cover so many other great singers (the number is truly staggering) and no need to fear said cover - her vocals are astounding. I can honestly say if this artist put out her own cd I would be online @ Amazon.com right now preordering it cause Jewel ain't got nothing on Stella. I know my music people! I am going to include a list of songs that Ms. Stella does covers of (She does others I am sure.) So you are prepared when you go to see her yourself.
By the way - The song that made me cry was Cindy Lauper's true colours - requested for me by my wonderful Viticus. Stella sang it so well I couldn't keep my eyes dry. Please go see Stella.. cause I saw her true colours shining through and that is why I loved her performance.
You can't hide personality. Stella has it. I am a true and new fan to her fan club but I will stay devoted. Come see why.
Thank you moon embers for the fantastic performance and thank you Stella for warming my heart on a very cold New England night. The rain isn't so bad when you have good music and yours was great!
