Event information

Tom Waits for No Man’ a set of sensitive and compelling reimagining’s of the music of Tom Waits.
Vocalist and composer Lindsay Hannon (“A voice soulful, brooding & unselfconscious in its longing” - Jazz Journal) has chosen and re-arranged a selection of songs from the legendary Tom Waits decades spanning back catalogue. From the tender nostalgia of 'Martha', the gospel infused 'Picture in a frame' and the variously, dark, comedic and lewd content of such numbers as 'Pasties and a G-string’, 'Christmas card from a hooker in Minneapolis’; this may be an opportunity to reacquaint yourself with this stellar artist, or perhaps discover for the first time, a few of the reasons that maintain his reputation as songwriter of international acclaim.
Lindsay Hannon – Vocals Alan Law – Piano
Paul Grainger – Double bass

Marina's vocal style has been likened to artists such as Lauryn Hill and Amy Winehouse and this in combination with her fresh, impassioned approach makes for an engaging musical journey of relatable self-reflection.
