Table Of Content
Presented by The Cluny and Jumpin’ Hot Club, the date brings the American songwriter back with Mike Stark and Mark Lotterman. The announced programme revisits Wrong Side of Memphis and Pictures from Life’s Other Side, records that established Dowd’s distinctive songwriting more than 25 years ago.
A return to the early records
Dowd’s songs have a taste for unusual characters, dark humour and stories that resist a tidy ending. The focus on those opening albums gives this show a clear starting point for longtime listeners, as well as anyone coming to his work for the first time.
Cluny 2 hosts the Newcastle date, with Mark Lotterman also named on the bill.
