FUTURE DAYS PRESENTS
BONNIE PRINCE BILLY
& special guests: BABY DEE + PAUL CURRERI
June 15. Vicar Street. 8pm
Will Oldham is an artist who requires no introduction. His history of live performance in Ireland is the stuff of legend with numerous memorble nights at Whelan’s and Vicar Street with many great guests including Andy Irvine, David Pajo, Bill Callahan and Harem Scarem to name a few.
Tonight will be extra special with the addition of Bonnie’s latest ally on the line-up, the remarkable Cleveland-born artist Baby Dee. Formerly a harp playing bear and an accordion playing cat, Baby Dee left behind her carnival antics for a world of serious music some years later. Aided by luminaries such as Antony and the Johnsons and Current 93’s David Tibet, Baby Dee now records for the esteemed Drag City label. Her latest album Safe Inside The Day was produced by Will Oldham and Matt Sweeney. www.babydee.org.
Paul Curreri is a member of Baby Dee’s touring band and will perform a solo set to open this show with music from his forthcoming fifth album The Velvet Rut on Tin Angel Records. www.myspace.com/paulcurreri
Will Oldham has been calling himself Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy since 1998. He has made some 15 studio albums including his forthcoming Domino/Drag City release Lie Down in the Light. Employing elements of roots, Nashville country, rock and roll, contemporary orchestration and folk-blues, he is considered one of the great pioneering and uncompromising performers of his generation.
Tickets available from Ticketmaster, WAV, Road, City Discs, Soundcellar
