Eugene Chadbourne
The ‘Doc’ hits town! The consulting room is open as the incomparable Eugene ‘Doc’ Chadbourne (guitar, banjo, vocals), makes his first UK appearance for five years.
Described as a ‘rebel among rebels’ Eugene’s highly individual take on all things guitaristic can see him switching, in the bat of an eyelid, between free improvisation, jazz, psychedelia, the blues and a country and western song.
The list of artists he has collaborated with runs into pages – Camper Van Beethoven, John Zorn, Aki Takase, Jimmy Carl Black, and the Violent Femmes are just a handful, appearing in clubs, galleries and festivals and in one case, a command performance with Tony Trischka for William S. Burroughs.
In the company of percussionist Roger Turner he takes us on a musical odyssey connecting the dots between the Appalachians and the edges of the known musical universe.
With special guest,John Russell – fellow guitarist and ‘picking pal’.
