Casiotone For The Painfully Alone + Withered Hand @ The Other Rooms Fri 12th November
PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT HAS BEEN MOVED TO THE OTHER ROOMS, TIME SQUARE.
SEE DIRECTIONS TO THE OTHER ROOMS
We're so glad to have Casiotonetone for the Painfully Alone playing in Newcastle as part of his Farewell Tour.
Owen Ashworth has been making music since 1997, and has performed and toured as Cftpa for 13 years.
In that time he pioneered a an ultra lo fi aesthetic, using just some inexpensive battery operated keyboards and electronics and a 4 track cassette recorder to create an utterly idiosyncratic accompaniment to his occasionally funny and almost always heart rending confessional lyrics.
Its with this set up that he performs on this, his last ever tour.
WITHERED HAND:
Casiotone For The Painfully Alone will be supported by Edinburgh's Withered Hand on this date.
Withered Hand is on Absolutely Kosher Records (Mountain Goats, The Wrens) and is one of my favourite songwriters.
Here's Mojo's 4 star review
"his impressive debut Dan Willson’s alter ego attains the celestial lustre of that holy grail of lapsed evangelical folk nouveau, the first Palace Brothers album."
Damn right. Damn, Right?
For Fans Of:
If you've been lit up inside by the likes of Mountain Goats, Jeffrey Lewis, The Smiths, Magnetic Fields or Why? in the past, but haven't heard ctfpa; please don't pass over on this one.
