Charlie Parr – www.myspace.com/charlieparrduluth
We welcome the return of Charlie Parr to this intimate London venue. Duluth's finest purveyor of traditional American piedmont style blues. This is the last London show for Charlie in 2009 so make sure you don't miss it...
It's no surprise that he counts among his fans the illustrator R. Crumb and slow-core rockers Low, Charlie's music has an appeal that spans genres, the authentic voice and utter lack of pretence of the music speaks to everyone. Charlie is considered 'one of the most important contemporary protagonists of the American folk tradition' by the Bath International Music Festival, and it's no surprise. These songs are records of the journeys, troubles and experiences of real people. His most recent release, Roustabout (Misplaced Music) is a superb collection of new and traditional songs.
'Charlie Parr has an inseparable affinity with his music, a 100 percent-proof blend of bluegrass, blues and country, with a rock-red seam of rag and stomp.' The Irish Times
Trevor Moss and Hannah Lou – www.myspace.com/trevormossandhannahlou
Trevor Moss and Hannah-Lou are rare musicians. This formidable young husband and wife duo are redefining the modern folk musician. Their resilient and perfectly synchronised union of heart and mind hollers and sings in euphonious harmony, dancing elegantly with words masterfully placed. “All simple chord progressions bashed out to accompany schoolboy lyrics. The kidd looked good, and his music was simple and effective. I felt like leaning out of a Cadillac gushing over a guy who was from the wrong side of town.” – Run-riot.com A beguiling and riotous live show of swapped instruments and vocals, this anti-folk boy-girl duo are like a less crude Moldy Peaches. Their playful lyrics and charming melodies dance on the lip and linger on the air. www.myspace.com/stubaboon, www.myspace.com/letsgobaboon, www.windmillbrixton.co.uk
