VINNY PECULIAR BAND

An early return by the Vinny Peculiar Band to DPT - performing two sets with a 'bar break' - featuring tracks from his soon to be released new album - ‘Things Too Long Left Unsaid’ - alongside other tracks from his extensive back catalogue.

One of the UK's most unique singer-songwriters, Vinny Peculiar takes the ordinary and makes it extraordinary. Peculiar [aka Alan Wilkes] grew up in Worcestershire and trained as a nurse before signing to Manchester cult label Ugly Man records [former home to Elbow].

Variously described as - 'an under sung national treasure' [UNCUT] - 'a warm hearted Morrissey' [Q Magazine] and 'the missing link between Jarvis Cocker and Roger McGough' [Irish Times] past work associations include Bill Drummond [KLF], Luke Haines and Jah Wobble [PIL] and his various bands have included ex members of The Smiths, OASIS, Aztec Camera & The Fall.

“If Tony Hancock had made pop records, they’d have sounded like this” Uncut).

“Part Pulp, part Kinks, and very much part Peculiar, this is observational, punk-tinged songwriting at its best” (Hot Press).
