Concert: Nigel Burch, Cockney-Brechtian folk-punk

BURCH/BATES live in Ausland (Lychener Str. 60, S- & U-Bahn Schönhauser Alle)


The Bladdered Balladeers

'A cross between the music of Ian Dury, Brecht and Weill, an Irish pub band and a 1950's skiffle group. Songs of urban-alienation with plenty of fierce spontaneous playing.' (THE GUARDIAN.)

Unplugged Cockney-Brechtian folk-punk cabaret from

Nigel Burch, the banjo-bashing troubadour of urban angst

accompanied by Dylan Bates, fiddler extroadinaire.

Manic minstrel Burch delivers his dark and gritty bittersweet ditties

with wit and a vitriolic fervour.

Violinist Bates adds an entertaining jazz-tinged playful poignancy.

Spit-and-sawdust vaudeville...

Hey

Sounds good, but he's playing three shows next week. How much is it at Ausland? It's 3 euros at White trash and not sure about king kong...

Dave

The Ausland gig is the main Berlin show with two sets. It's only 5 Euros at the door, which is cheap for Saturday night gig in Berlin. Cheap drinks.

White Trash and King Kong Klub will be great too but shorter and Saturday night's at Ausland is a big one!
