The Luminaire presents
PAUL CURRERI
+ Benjamin Wetherill
+ DONT MOVE!

Doors 7.30
£8 via WeGotTickets
£9 door

Of Paul Curreri's 2003 album, 'Songs for Devon Sproule', which was produced by Kelly Joe Phelps, Vintage Guitar Magazine claims; "One of the very finest records in awhile. And, not just in this genre. Any genre."

The New Yorker calls this guitarist & songster from Charlottesville, Virginia "Exquisite. Brings a renewed eloquence to the medium" and Americana-UK says: "Full of soul, hushed insight, and (at last) originality."

His fifth album, 'The Velvet Rut', is due for release on Tin Angel Records in April, 2007. "Spontaneous & poetic, playing unpredictably, altering his phrasing, his routines thankfully haven't been hammered into regular shape" says The Independent.

Main support this evening plays "enchanting, odd, kind-of-folk songs, with a dash of his own take on the blues, intermingled with touching versions of George Formby numbers played on the ukulele." [Nude Magazine]. The purveyor of such songs is one Benjamin Wetherill.

Opening are DON'T MOVE!whose “propulsive, addictive rhythms" [The Fly] were born from a diverse range of influences including '60s legends such as The Byrds, Scott Walker and Love, as well as jazz greats like Buddy Rich, Ahmad Jamal and Jaco Pastorius and an appetite for classic disco. Not to mention their love of folk and roots music too.
