 Vanessa Carlton
It was a shame Carlton was playing on a stage in front of thousands, because her talents, and believe me, she is filled with talent, is much more suited for a music hall where the piano sounds can reflect off the ceiling and fill the ears with the wondrous sound only that instrument can make.

But let’s hope that next time Carlton hits the road, she is able to play a venue that suits her sound and allows her to play a set to showcase all her talents.
