We've got quite the gig at Lazybird this Sunday: along with Deserted Village stalwart Agitated Radio Pilot, we've got the Dublin debut of US guitarist Jack Rose. Here's more about him...

JACK ROSE

Jack Rose is a twelve-string and slide guitar player of some note, being one of the few proper heirs to the idiosyncratic solo folk guitar tradition. His ability to hush a room with his passionate and transfixing playing full of American folk, bottleneck experimentations and Raag-like sessions is an experience to behold.

But he's more than just a traditionalist: he transfigures the Raag into a kind of Dream Music, Folk into a Deep Listening Experience and Blues to a Minimalist Freakout. Pure spirit-lifting music that warms the air it travels over. Along with Indian music and pre-war American guitar music, the influence of John Fahey and the so-called Takoma School (Robbie
Basho and Max Ochs) is caught within his own sound.

His memorable performances during his last European tour are paved with golden reviews of his strong and tender approach and the dynamic and beautiful music, and his set at last weekend's Green Man Festival was highly praised.

Jack has a new single release and a reissue of his album Raag Manifestos to coincide with his current tour. His last album, Kensington Blues, has been caned by freak folkers, traditionalists, Radio 3, doom-drone heads and critics. As a member of psych-drone band Pelt, in collaboration with such artists as Glen Jones, Fursaxa, Mogwai, Chris Corsano, MV&EE and Sunn 0))), and as a solo artist (as Dr. Ragtime and under his own name), Jack has garnered a sizable reputation.

AGITATED RADIO PILOT
The long-time project of Midlander and Deserted Village lynchpin Dave Colohan, Agitated Radio Pilot is just as often a sprawling multi-piece orchestra as it is Dave alone with only his guitar and voice. But regardless, ARP makes music of stark sadness, melancholic warmth and the sound of the forest. He's brought his personal vision of folk to just about everywhere in Ireland (including quite a few previous appearances with us), and has played alongside such acts as The Mountain Goats, Charalambides, Josephine Foster, Pinkie Maclure & John Wills, Chris Brokaw and many others.

So a night of folk-based experimentalism this Sunday, starting at around 9pm and costing you and yours only a tenner. Hope you can make it down.
