Ivor Cutler and the Shinytribe: A double bill of songs and stories performed by Tim Dalling.
The first half: “Help I Think I’m Turning Into Ivor Cutler” Tim’s tribute to the great folk-surrealist Ivor Cutler, hero of the Beatles (he was Buster Bloodvessel, the bus conductor in the Magical Mystery Tour) and John Peel (he was a regular doing sessions for Peel in the 70s and 80s). Beautiful, hilarious and weird songs performed as Ivor did accompanied with pedal-organ.
The second half: “Songs of the Shinytribe” is a set of songs and stories, written and performed by Tim Dalling, accordionist, performer, songwriter and theatre-maker. His funky accordion and soulful voice have been likened to a cross between Randy Newman and Ivor Cutler. It is a celebration of birth, death, rituals, hares and dancing trees. Come along and be ready to laugh and cry.
