Scottish national treasures “TEXAS” kickstart the heart of a mid September, Sunday night at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro as the band get together to preform “The Very Best Of” their entire catalogue of hits.

This live music extravaganza delivered an evening of pop rock, laughter and good spirit as front woman of your dreams Sharleen Spiteri engages the audience like no other with her interactive conversations with audience members – notably a comical moment from Sharleen as she sympathies with a visibly shorter woman in the audience, explaining she knows the feeling “been there! Let her up on your shoulders” she’s now directly speaking to the man beside the shorter woman.

The man must have looked reluctant to do such a thing and turned to the woman who was stood beside him. We quickly came to the understanding that the man has got absolutely no idea who the shorter woman is and has come to the concert with his wife “who’s this?… Oh that’s your wife!” laughter emerges from the audience as if we’re sat in the room watching a comedian. It’s okay Sharleen, your heart was in the right place.

The band not only look great, dressed like true 80s rockers in leather jackets, black denim and sparkling tailoring but also sound phenomenal, with light yet flexibly deep vocal tones, infused with breathy backing vocals and the subtle sounds of the drumming, bass and guitar working in conjunction to create the perfect sing along melodies the audience are clearly enthralled by. Stand out tracks included; “Black Eyed Boy”, “Summer Son” and “Inner Smile”.

The entire night was uplifting and TEXAS are a band that are a must see.
