With his trademark hat, vocal chops, guitar and touring band, James Bay made many females swoon at The Hollywood Palladium as he wrapped up his tour. Fans were packed in tight as Bay sang from the depths of his soul, stomped his boots, broke our hearts and made us dance. Many songs were played off his debut album Chaos and the Calm. “Running” from his Let It Go EP, had almost the entire crowd singing over Bay.

I used to recognize myself
It’s funny how reflections change
When we’re becoming something else
I think it’s time to walk away

So come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

Kaity Dunstan, aka Cloves, is a young singer from Australia. Since there was a huge crowd already there waiting for Bay, they were lucky enough to hear her lovely voice.
