Also, she was totally funny! In-between songs, she has some really cute anecdotes to warm up the audience. On stage, she had a really commanding performance. Of course, her own fully original work is awesome as well, and she is best known for the song “I Try” off of her debut album. Tonight, she did “Here Comes The Rain Again” from the Eurythmics. I love that she selected some of my favorite bands and songs to cover on this album, and many are really out of left field choices that are just incredible (like “Maps”, a Yeah Yeah Yeahs song). She has released six studio albums, and her latest, “Covered”, came out earlier this year. Macy Gray is a Grammy Award winning R&B singer songwriter, known for her very distinctive voice. This concert was a bit of a bonus for me, as I have been a fan of Macy Gray, but never seen her perform live, so it was awesome to hear that she would be opening for Seal on this tour.

He is undoubtedly a person to look up to, who lives life with a great deal of introspection, honesty, and modesty.
He is really singular in the field of music, and if he could not sing, after spending around 40 minutes hearing him open up to us about his thoughts and feelings on a few different subjects – talking with strangers as though they were old, close friends – if he could not sing, I would still remain a huge fan of Seal the man. Seal is an artist that sings from the heart, and I can’t imagine him being any other way, especially after having had the privilege of spending a good amount of time with him and a small group later, after the concert.

Beautiful songs (both his own and a few covers of classic material) and real, true emotion on full display. Stunning voice, amazing performance, he really filled the smaller, intimate, outdoor venue with life.
Last night Seal put on an incredible performance at Humphreys Concerts by the Bay in San Diego.
