Norah and her band cooly cruised on stage, as the chanteuse positioned herself coyly behind the keyboard and kicked it off with "Say Goodbye," before donning her six-string and grooving into the title track off the new record. Norah and the bands' sly and soulful sound had the audience hooked as they declared their undying love online and with applause. Midway through the set the crowd online was shouting out for "Happy Pills."
Norah closed the hour long set with a couple of classics including "Sunrise" and "Come Away With Me" before delighting the crowd with an encore of "Stuck."
