Last week Welsh “it girl” Duffy played her first show in Toronto to a sold out Mod Club crowd. Opening with her first single, title track “Rockferry,” she worked her way through her entire album in about an hour, which made for a short evening since there was no opening band. While many are calling Duffy the next Amy Winehouse, her voice sounds similar, but her musical range isn’t quite as varied just yet and aside from a few songs, most felt the same as the next. She also seemed to have a canned set of movements on stage, but given that she’s just recently been plucked from obscurity it’s easy to forgive, since she’s still in that phase of finding her footing (literally).

Overall, the concert was a pleasant experience and the audience gave her a very warm Canadian welcome. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her back in town in the near future.
