This was hands down, the best show that I've been to in years. I was completely blown away by how truly talented this young man is. His voice is incredible, what a sound. All I could think of was, "A young Otis Redding"...soulful, bluesy tunes... Coupled with his band, who also rocks...just an awesome night of music. Perfect. I've been raving to all of my friends and family. This morning I played his album for a friend and his 3 day old baby...we all loved it...including the baby! :)

Wow. So effortlessly charismatic, soulful and powerful voice. Mellow yet so moving. And the outdoor, intimate setting at the Ford Amphitheater was absolutely perfect. Beautiful Southern California evening. And a big shout out to my man Jeremy Sole for bringing this wonderful crooner to the venue. Yay KCRW!

This was a great show! Michael sounds fantastic live.
Originally went to see Bahamas, which didn't disappoint at all. Fantastic pair to see together.

No disrespect to Michael, because he was great, but I'm a big fan of Yuna and she was outstanding, just like her CD is! The middle band was great as well! What a deal for $15 (including fees). 3 great bands with several outstanding musicians.

The supporting acts, Yuna and Bahamas, were excellent. Michael Kiwanuka was great too. It was fun watching him and the band enjoy jamming together.

I knew I was in store for a good show when Foy Vance was the opener. I've been waiting five years to see him and felt nothing but privileged to be at this whole show. Foy's voice is so rich and deep that it gave me goose bumps. He was a perfect fit to open for Michael.
Marcus Foster was the second opener but I will be honest, I did not like him at all.
Michael Kiwanuka has a sweet way about him. His voice, his manner and his music. He played straight through without talking too much, but I think he was nervous. His bad was also quite incredible. They meshed well together and played as if they were one musician. It was a pleasure to watch.
It was amazing to be so close to see all their musicianship. It was a great show, filled with great music. I just can't wait until he has another album out so it could be a longer show.

Michael Kiwanuka sings straight from the heart. So much soul , warmth and honesty. I've always regretted not being alive when the great soul legends were in their prime, but Michael may be our Otis or Marvin.

I've been waiting for a good show for months and the tip off for Michael K and his band came out of nowhere! This guy put on a great show and seeing him play at an intimate venue like the Williamsburg Hall of Music was perfect. I was almost moved to tears by the expression of rock and roll soul, and it was a joy to watch him and his fantastic band enjoy themselves on stage. Best $23 I've spent in a while - can't wait until Michael and his band come back!!

I don't think I have ever been as excited for a young artists career as I am for Michael's. His voice is even better live than it is on the album. I am looking forward to years of unique, innovative, soulful and funky music from Michael.

Michael Kiwanuka totally blew me away. His album is good. Really Solid. But LIVE he is truly a phenomenon. He is not so much a showman, but the purity of his voice and the rawness and tenderness of his presence was quite something to behold. Also the band, and in particular the rhythm section was tight and grooving and overflowing with great energy.
