Ana Popovic @ Aalst Bluest
How wonderful the internet can be. Just a week ago I noticed a post by a fellow member of Belgium Digital, showing his work on Ana Popvic’s concert in Bierbeek. I checked her myspace and loved the sound of her music. On the bottom of the page, the calender showed her next concert would be even closer to me, so I tried my luck. I’m VERY thankful the organiser gave me permission to shoot the concert at his small, but very cosy club, The Factory in Aalst.
I wasn’t quit prepared for this small event, that blew me away. The Monday Lovers, Belgium’s blues pride did set the mood for a splendid evening.
Ana Popovic turned out to be the most exciting guitarplayer I’ve ever experienced. This fragile looking lady brings a hot, steamy blues, thrilling solo’s and with and an incredible drive… Who said the blues come from the US. I say it’s played by a Yugosalvian girl, living in Amsterdam!
