12 March -Charlie Parr(USA) and Adrian Crowley
COBBLESTONE Dublin - £/€10.00
CHARLIE PARR Charlie Parr hails from Duluth, Minnesota. Rooster is Charlie Parr's 4th independent release and follows on from his marvellous 2004 release King Earl, which had toes tapping and people weeping into their beer in equal measure. Rooster similarly splits itself in two. It's a rustic, rural kinda place where heartbreaking delicate banjo tunes rub shoulders with gritty, bluesy stomp-a-longs. Charlie is the rough-hewn country cousin of Jack Rose – the teeth may be missing, the appearance disheveled and the beard tatty but he sure knows how to play. Lyrically the songs deal with the usual litany of human miseries and occasional joys: aging, death, loneliness, god, regret and even love. The music draws influence from the rural music of the 1920's: rags, blues, and folk tunes. Parr plays banjo, baritone 12-string, National steel guitar, and a wood-body resonator guitar built by fellow Duluthian Jake Larson. Charlie has fans in Alan Sparhawk (Low), Jack Rose, legendary cartoonist Robert Crumb and filmmaker Travis Wilkerson. He was initially brought to a UK audience when Hood's Richard Adams saw him perform a Christmas show in Duluth, Minnesota and tricked wife Sara into releasing his records in the UK on her Misplaced Music imprint. He has toured the UK twice playing shows with Carla Bozulich, Black Eyed Snakes, Adrian Crowley, Big Eyes and My Two Toms. He will be returning to the UK and Ireland for a two-week tour in March 2006. For fans of: Harry Smith Anthology ,Charlie Patton , Doc Boggs ,Jack Rose, Steve Earle , Robert Johnson,John Fahey ,Mississippi John Hurt. www.charlieparr.com www.misplacedmusic.co.uk ADRIAN CROWLEY Adrian Crowley , who hails from Galway, independently released his first album ‘ A Strange Kind’ in 1999.Initially the record was only available in Ireland but later saw aNorth American release.In 2001 the opportunity arose to record an album with legendary Steve Albini at Electrical Audio in Chicago.The album , ‘When You Are Here You Are Family’ was committed to tape and mixed in under a week and featured cellist Kate Ellis and drummer Thomas Haugh.It was at this time ‘Ba Da Bing!’ Records , a New York based indie, offered to release the record in the USA along with ‘A Strange Kind’.Adrian subsequently embarked on a 14 date tour of the East Coast of the USA having picked up coveragein magazines such as ‘Alternative Press’ and ‘The New Yorker’ who had this to say: “Crowley transcends the limitations of his chosed genre thanks to a deep, captivating voiceand a light touch”.
