Trotwood Events proudly presents the one and only JOHN OTWAY

ROCK AND ROLL’S GREATEST FAILURE!! … a man who’s entire career is a stunningly original work of performance art in its own right. Arriving on the back of punk in 1977 and helped by an ill-balanced gymnastic performance on The Old Grey Whistle Test, his first single"Cor Baby That’s Really Free" managed to reach number 27 in the UK Charts. Going on to develop an increasingly unhinged career, building a cult following along the way, 2002 saw him finally become a 2 HIT WONDER when “Bunsen Burner” - a song written to help his daughter with her chemistry homework - scored a top 10 hit and saw Otway running amok on Top of The Pops. Thanks to this second hit he has now been able to release his Greatest Hits album. Commenting on the fact that the title of this album is now in the plural, Otway said that he was very proud of having "finally got the 'S' on the right side of Hit". Expect ill-judged on-stage acrobatics, theramins and the stupidity of a great genius.
