_1270 Charlie Parr and the Black Twig Pickers "Its not often the phrase \u2018barnstorming\u2019 is used appropriately but this raucous and raw touring double bill of Virginia\u2019s Black Twig Pickers and Minnesota\u2019s Charlie Parr surely justifies such rabid anticipation. With little more than a National resonator guitar in hand and his earnestly rasping voice, Charlie is rapidly becoming a cult proposition in the UK and elsewhere. And teaming up with the Black Twig Pickers for this tour will only increase that. The two acts often play together in the US, so these shows will be a real musical tinderbox that can soon escalate into wild whisky-fuelled sessions where the boundaries between the two acts starts to evaparate and the audience erupts."
