<\/p>\n

A night with Ron Pope is one of beautiful chaos.\u00a0\u201cMy most vivid memory of Manchester is walking into a lamppost,\u201d the pigtailed 40-year-old told the crowd, before starting his set with Bruce Springsteen cover I\u2019m On Fire. Playing to a decent turnout in The Stoller Hall, it was the penultimate night of the pop-rock singer\u2019s 30-odd date tour, and it was clear he intended to have fun winding up. \u201cTouring is rubbish – you wake up in a different place each day and ask what the sandwiches are today,\u201d Nashville-based Ron told us. \u201cBut being on stage – these 90 minutes playing – this is why we do it. It\u2019s pure joy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Snow Song and a cover of Carol King\u2019s I\u2019ve Seen Fire and I\u2019ve Seen Rain followed, Ron\u2019s voice raw and powerful, as earnest as it was effortless.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For most of the night he was joined onstage by longtime collaborator and piano mentor Paul Hammer, along with violinist, singer – and Ron\u2019s support act – Lydia Luce. \u201cIt\u2019s his first day,\u201d Ron teased as Paul knocked over some of the set.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Together they were tight, a pretty celebration of strings and slick harmonies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Body Language was a highlight, waking up the sleepy Stoller Hall crowd, along with Good Old Days, a song father-of-one Ron wrote about his five-year-old daughter growing up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The sound in the concert hall was spot on, and despite more than one drunk reveller (clearly lost on their way to a night out in Deansgate Locks) Ron\u2019s every word was heard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chattier than a chat show host, there was more between-song patter than most.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But it worked – and the campfire stories about his grandparents, wife and little girl served to put a human behind the songs – an extremely likeable one at that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t have been the only one left wanting more. Indeed, a night with Ron is one to remember.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I turned up with no expectations, and was blown away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There was heart, there was warmth, there was laughter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, you\u2019ve heard the old adage, they laughed them into bed. Bear with me\u2026 Well Ron Pope laughed his way to a five star review.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
