Nick Cave and Warren Ellis lift hearts and spirits with a cathartic batch of music before sold-out crowd at Paramount Theatre.
The healing power of music was on full display as Nick Cave and Warren Ellis took the stage on Sunday night at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland.
Instead, it was as richly cathartic a night of music as I can remember, as Cave brought the crowd to life through the tear-stained songs from his last two albums. Cave and Ellis, who perform a second show at the Paramount on Monday, opened the concert in brilliant fashion with the “Spinning Song,” Cave’s latest ode to the “king of rock ‘n’ roll” who had “black jelly hair” and “crashed onto a stage in Vegas.” The Elvis-inspired number also happens to be the opener for “Ghosteen” and the pair would stick to that album for the next two offerings as well — the equally mesmerizing “Bright Horses” and “Night Raid.
“I just like to watch him count things in,” Cave said of Ellis. “He has like the sexiest counting in rock ‘n’ roll history.”He’d then somewhat revise that assessment, commenting about how great singer-songwriter-guitarist Jonathan Richman is at counting in songs.
