Tizane
"I loved watching Tizane, they definitely picked up a new fan. They had the entire audience in the palm of their hand. The diverse original songs they played ranged from emotional and heartfelt, having the audience almost in tears, to upbeat and fun, leaving the room dancing, especially during their song 'Why Not Me'. I loved their song 'Running', it begun completely fragile and beautiful, but each chorus revealed that angsty, pop punk sound."
