Event
Galleon Blast
FatPigeon Live presents Mark Radcliffe's Galleon Blast, The Band on the Rum, and Introducing the rising talent of Megan Kelsey.
Yes, here for a special one off gig, live in Audlem's World Famous Scout & Guide Hall venue, and if you want to be part of this intimate performance read on.
Press ganged into service by an unscrupulous gangmaster from the Spanish Main (well.Knutsford actually), the swarthy seadogs of Galleon Blast occasionally get shore leave to ply their raggle-taggle trade wherever folk will have them. With a selection of rum-soaked songs and shanties, the Blasters whip up a squally strumming storm to get all and sundry friggin' in the riggin'.
With traditional tunes and many a seafaring classic from The Dubliners, The Waterboys, The Pogues, Thin Lizzy, The Fisherman's Friends and Ewan MacColl; you can be sure that these diddly diddly deck-hands will get feet tapping from the poop to the crow's nest.
Galleon Blast feature banjos, whistles, accordions and fiddles from members of The Family Mahone, Full House and Mark Radcliffe and Foes, including the pirate dj himself Mr.Radcliffe the Jack Sparrow of the Radio 2 Folk Show. Actually, make that the Jack Duckworth of the Radio 2 Folk Show.
So, it's all aboard the good ship Blast for a full-on broadside of buccaneering beat.
Introducing Megan Kelsey
This talented singer songwriter originally from Shropshire, is passionate about rock and folk music. Influences include Coldplay, The Sundays, Ben Howard and Laura Marling.
She first appeared here in Audlem at the Fringe at No11 Cheshire Street at this years Audlem Music and Arts Festival. We were just looking for an appropriate stage to invite her back.
Release the inner rouge, be a pirate and quaff and AHHHRRR with the best. Bring rum, bring parrots, but most of all bring yourselves.
The FatPigeon Live gig will be filmed and recorded live, and you can be part of that audience, think Jools Holland with a slice of the Old Grey Whistle test and a touch of TFI Friday. Tickets are limited and it will be standing only.
