Last Friday night The Regrettes came to Boston to give a bright, springy performance featuring their new album Further Joy. Aussie rocker Alex Lahey set the tempo for the evening with a pop-punk repertoire that contained a cover of Faith Hill’s “This Kiss,” as well as a saxophone solo or two. When The Regrettes took the spotlight, frontwoman Lydia Night easily commanded the crowd’s attention as she jumped, swaggered, and sauntered back and forth across the stage while singing and playing guitar. The poppy styling of Further Joy was largely represented in both the song selection and visual theme of the gig, complemented by a cover of Avril Lavigne’s “Girlfriend,” but the setlist was also half comprised of selections from the band’s previous work. No matter which album was performed, the crowd shook the floor as they excitedly jumped and sang along. Even as Night took time mid-set to comment on the previous week’s bleak news, The Regrettes offered Bostonians a welcome respite to experience a couple hours of joy.
