Pokey La Farge - has sold out

The Cluny have lined up an excellent lady gig early in the year , worthy of your complete attention.

Wed 8th Feb - Holly Throsby ( Cluny 2 ) Price: £7.50

Holly Throsby has just released her third album “Team”: “Scattered handclaps warm the mood, but Throsby’s folk ballads, sung in a resigned hush, part warbly Anaís Mitchell, part poppy Feist, are the sound of a woman scorned. These are 10 sad, yet beautifully restrained songs, whose intimacy grows with each hearing” **** The Sunday Times “A rare jewel in the Australian outback with strong Americana links, Holly at times recalls the late great Kate McGarrigle. Her gentle breathy intonations are stoked with deft, rustic accompaniment creating songs as delicate and ornate as a folky Faberge egg” **** Daily Mirror

The Gateshead Town Hall is undergoing a massive refurbishment & as The Tyneside Cinema & Northern Sinfonia will already know, as theyve both resided there in the recent past, the actual hall is a fabulous space. So come early November we will be programming a couple shows in there to start the ball rolling. This will be an ongoing programme thoughout 2010 & beyond, in contrast to our other Gateshead gigs.

Here's the address - ticket box office-
