JOSEPHINE FOSTER 'Blood Rushing' Tour

The wonderful singer-songwriter Josephine Foster (USA) tours her new album 'Blood Rushing' (Fire Records) with full band. This tour offers Europe a fresh chance to experience Foster's magnificent voice, swooping and swaying through the melodic arrangements (Morriconeon in their power and imagination) of her band. Some songs are singalongs, some are deep atmospheric tales that leave the listener yearning to know more. American gothic, breathless folk and mountain music are all drawn upon by the band but boy 'o' boy, do they swing and swing, with Spanish guitar maestro Victor Herrero channelling all kinds of colour and texture into proceedings. At the heart of the fulsome live sound which also features Trembling Bells' Alex Neilson on drums and Paz Lenchantin from the Entrance Band on bass/violin will be Foster's voice, evoking the nostalgic warmth and beauty of a phonograph.

BRICKWORK LIZARDS is a mesmerising 8-piece Oxford band that bridges the divide between Arabic and Western music. The band blends oud, cello, fiddle, guitar, banjo, trumpet and percussion into musical styles from traditional Arabic and jazz to blues, spoken word and hip-hop.
