GUESSWORK at 303, High St Northcote Thursday 11th March 2010
By B. G.
Vivacious singer Juvita Pingiaro led her trio of merry male musicians onstage in the cosy 303 band room to launch their Guesswork sounds to a waiting Melbourne audience. It was a thin crowd in this cosy Northcote venue but anticipation for the groups strong, soulful offerings was evident in those gathered.
The petite Pingiaro, exuding a sexual energy reminiscent of Chrissie Amphlett, introduced the Mornington based group before the catching rhythm of favourite ‘Dublin Rain’ was given. A nod to it’s Irish linage is obvious in the moody, changing music as legs started to sway and heads nodded to the catching chorus lines. Pingiaro’s deep, emotive vocals draw full attention from anyone in earshot while the lads rocking rhythm accompany and set the mood for this delivery perfectly.
The mood was relaxed onstage with the quartet finding their feet on a Melbourne stage, joking with the audience and exploring new material. Lively, rocking moments ‘Egos’ and ‘Centre Of Your World’ clearly stand out as ready singles with bursting riffs and prominent chorus. Quieter moments ‘Give me a Sign’ and ‘Sinking Sands’ also give great variation to a strong set. These songs especially drew the crowds full attention to the deep matter being expressed through Pingiaro’s soulful, heartfelt lyrics.
It was a smallish crowd that saw Guesswork introduce themselves to a Melbourne audience on a quiet Thursday evening. I’m sure that all attending will be back with friends at future gigs to experience Guesswork again on the strength of this performance and the music in itself as they spread their sound.
