Charlie Parr and the Black Twig Pickers
Its not often the phrase ‘barnstorming’ is used appropriately but this raucous and raw touring double bill of Virginia’s Black Twig Pickers and Minnesota’s 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.Date: 17/09/10
