Alasdair Roberts @ The Lexington, Feb 2012
|
We’re very happy to announce another show with one of our favourite Scottish singers, songwriters and interpreters of song – and one who rides a (mighty) fine line between the traditional and twisted sides of the folk fence. Legend has it he was discovered by Will Oldham, aka Bonnie “Prince” Billy and, since signing to Drag City, he’s supported Joanna Newsom on her European Tour, featured on the cover of The Wire Magazine and collaborated in one way or other with the likes of James Yorkston, Will Oldham and Karine Polwart. Alasdair Roberts played two band shows at our home from home, The Slaughtered Lamb, in May 2010, and we’re looking forward to this solo show in the slightly more expansive, but still intimate, confines of The Lexington, halfway between Kings Cross and Angel. We don’t really need to tell you so but don’t miss this: More info here http://pulluptheroots.co.uk/page.php?id=34 |
