Sting Sing

Sting put forward a nice holiday concert this year. While he is starting to look like a Civil War era politician in his clothing choices and beard, he also has some fun music that he’s doing. His holiday show wasn’t the usual fun, family Santa-based thing. He seemed much more likely to go into medieval music and perform it. With his backup band of harps and lutes and other obscure instruments, we found that he was able to perform such unusual Christmas pieces. It’s not exactly “Every Breath You Take” but when you look back at songs like that, you can hear a little bit of the same kind of melodic work like in the medieval songs that he likes so much. What an interesting development for such a talented musician.
