Led Zeppelin tribute band Mothership plays The Continental with classics like 'Kashmir' and 'Black Dog'.
Mothership bring their Led Zeppelin tribute to The Continental on Friday 4 December, with doors opening at 8:00pm. It's a full evening of Zeppelin, and the setlist they've put together covers a good stretch of the catalogue: Achilles Last Stand, Going to California, Since I've Been Loving You, Kashmir, Black Dog, Heartbreaker and Misty Mountain Hop are all in there, with one or two surprises on top.
If you're not familiar with them, Mothership describe themselves more as a homage than a tribute, built to celebrate the music rather than mimic the band. Unlike a lot of tribute acts, they don't lean on costumes, wigs or gestures, and they let the playing do the talking. Classic Rock Magazine called them 'the most authentic-sounding Zeppelin tribute in the UK'.
That approach means the focus stays on the songs rather than the performance around them. The setlist they've lined up runs from the heavy, driving riffs of Black Dog and Heartbreaker to the slower, more melodic side of things like Going to California and Since I've Been Loving You, with Kashmir and Achilles Last Stand providing the longer, more expansive moments. It's a broad look across the band's output, and the one or two surprises they've mentioned should round it out.
