Rory McLeod (Solo concert) SEPTEMBER 27TH 2019
www.rorymcleod.com
Rhythmic storyteller, multi-instrumentalist,
…telling unpalatable truths about broken hearts…social injustice…in songs, that are percussive, bold, lyrical, deeply personal …and have an unexpected edge to them, accompanied by spoons, harmonica, guitar, trombone and-tap-dancing shoes.
RORY McLEOD
An ex-circus clown and fire eater.
is a one-man-soul-band, and poet.
He has a natural troubadour's talent for weaving magical, musical, storytelling spells accompanied by his own bizarre solo orchestra of distinctive instruments.
The spoons, finger-cymbals, bandorea, Djembe-drum, harmonica, guitar, trombone and-tap-dancing shoes
accompany the
"rich, raw, deep and resonant" voice of this "singular and liberating performer."
"Expect the unexpected."
McLEOD
is a musical Gypsy, his eccentric melodies are infused with influences from Flamenco to Country blues, through to Celtic, East European and Calypso rhythms creating a style of music and songwriting that has been described as

"Intimate, revealing, political and powerful."

"When he sings his songs he will take you on a journey with him."
"Poetry and dance-stories with verve, sharpness, humour and warmth about people and for people."

"Great songs to dance to, infectious rhythms, flying harmonica!
Rory's 11th Album 'GUSTO' is to be released June 1st 2019.
