The Revolving Doors Tour: Chris Barron (of The Spin Doctors) and Lach!

Event information

Two journeymen from New York's East Village mixing tales of the Rock
and Roll life with songs that are loved by millions. Not to be missed!

Chris Barron's legacy is the stuff of myth. His band, The Spin Doctors were ubiquitous in the early nineties. Everyone owned their album Pocketful of Kryptonite as it blared out of summer speakers all across the globe. Barron has a Grammy nomination, a Rolling Stone cover, two multi-platinum albums and two Top Ten hits - Little Miss Can't Be Wrong and Two Princes - for which he won a BMI award.

Chris still loves gigging with his the highly in-demand Spin Doctors but he also cherishes playing his solo, acoustic shows as he evolves into that rare beast of singer-songwriters-the journeyman. The Revolving Doors tour with Antifolk legend Lach will see Chris doing his very first solo tour of the UK playing his hits with The Spin Doctors as well as breaking out exciting new material.

Lach has been called "New York's living legend" by Time Out London and "The roots of modern songwriting: Bob Dylan, Syd Barrett, The New York Dolls, Nick Drake and Lach!" High praise indeed but not uncommon for the founder of Antifolk, he international phenomenon that's been cited as a main inspiration for such acts as Beck, Regina Spektor, Laura Marling and hundreds of others.

Lach has six critically acclaimed albums ("5 stars. Splendid, best of its kind!"- Mojo Magazine), a newly published book of poetry ("Outstandingly beautiful." - stirlingwriter.com) and a hit BBC Radio 4 comedy series 'The Lach Chronicles' (Top Radio Pick Hit from The London Times, The Observer, The Independent, The Daily Mail, The Telegraph and RadioTimes!)

"A Lach show is a face-ache funny, beat-punk-unplugged joy, and likely to send you home with several favourite new songs"- The Guardian UK
