Ebenezers Cafe
Ebenezers Cafe, located in the Shoppes at Smithbridge, is a relaxing eatery complete
with comfortable chairs and an inviting fireplace. The menu offers light fare, gourmet
pastries, and specialty coffees. In addition, Ebenezers presents live music on
Friday and Saturday nights, featuring predominately solo acoustic performers and
occasionally jazz musicians.
In this relaxing atmosphere, Mr. Vague performed a 90-minute set included both covers and
original material. While the covers were an interesting mix of 70s acoustic artists
and 60s psychedelic bands, the set still managed to retain its continuity.
Surprisingly, songs like Al Stewarts "Last Day of June 1934" and
"Songs out of Clay" worked well with Jefferson Airplanes
"Genesis" and The Zombies "Beachwood Park." Even though he
lacked the backing of a band, his stripped down versions of "Genesis" and
"Beachwood Park" retained their power. Other covers included Joni
Mitchells "Urge for Going" and Tom Waits "Cant Wait to
Get off Work."
Mr. Vagues original material, consisting of "100,000 Deaths,"
"Ginny," "Just Once More," "Spider Web" and "Through
the Glass" worked well with the covers. His songwriting also revealed much of the
same political commentary and forlorn feelings of the covers. Mr. Vague did not talk much
during his performance, but was willing to grant requests. The sound quality was excellent
and his vocals hit the right note.
Generally, solo acoustic acts do not lend themselves to rambunctious stage shows and in
keeping with Mr. Vague was no exception. Instead, he provided, in the comfortable setting
of Ebenezers Cafe, powerful music worth contemplating.
