Entry Requirements: All Ages
An evening with the legendary guitarist, songwriter, composer and author Gary Lucas.
Gary infamously worked with a plethora of legendary American artists – notably the late greats Jeff Buckley, Captain Beefheart and Lou Reed.
He wrote the remarkable title track ‘Grace’ and ‘Mojo Pin’ with the young Buckley from his only LP proper.
The ‘Don’ of Captain Beefheart swallowed Gary into the band for the memorable LP’s ‘Doc at The Radar Station’ and ‘Ice Cream for Crow’.
The Music Hall show In this unique, insightful and personal performance Gary will project rare archival footage of him with Buckley and Beefheart, spin unreleased tracks of his works with his many collaborators and discuss his wider career and writings in great depth.
Armed with his 1942 Gibson J-45 throughout the show Gary will play live renditions of the much loved songs he co-wrote as well as select works form his formidable back-catalogue – each song given context by form of introduction, musings and memories shared.
