Event information

The Velveteen Orkestra are a ragged-trousered rock and roll orchestra conceived in a leaky, shadow-veiled district of South London. Bellowing out from underneath the grey brutalist tower blocks named in honour of romantic poets is a sound that is both savage, yet elegant… animal, yet noble… honest, yet fantastical.Their pulsating live shows are attracting audiences for their rich romanticism and brooding intensity, as well as their sparkling sense of humour. Lead Singer/Guitarist Dan Shears emits a gilt-edged voice from a spindle-limbed frame, evoking memories of Jeff Buckley at his heart-aching best.

Support on the night comes from 3times7 performing their own brand of Blues & Soul and Bracknell based singer and songwriter Matt Hall.

“With a songwriting gift that belies his tender years, haunted troubadour Shears strides into town evoking seasoned greats like Cave and Cohen” - ANDY COWN, MUSIC WEEK & MOJO
