Billie Ray Martin

Billie Ray Martin

The headliner is Electribe 101’s Billie Ray Martin, known for her huge hit Your Loving Arms which led to Seaman adding his genius remixing touch. She is one of the most sought after musicians for well over the past 25 years in today’s dance industry. She’s also known for her mix collaborations with the likes of Frankie Knuckles and was first discovered by S-Express’ Mark Moore back in ’88 landing her Top Of The Pops performances from there in onwards right through the years.

Flogging Molly Tour

0
Flogging Molly

Flogging Molly’s music is influenced by various artists, such as The Dubliners, The Pogues, Horslips, Johnny Cash, and The Clash. The album Within a Mile of Home is dedicated to Joe Strummer and Johnny Cash.

Their music ranges from boisterous Celtic punk, like the pirate-themed Salty Dog, Cruel Mistress, and Seven Deadly Sins, or the defiant What’s Left of the Flag, Drunken Lullabies, and Rebels of the Sacred Heart to more somber songs like Far Away Boys, The Son Never Shines (On Closed Doors), Life in a Tenement Square and Float. Lyrics typically touch on subjects such as Ireland and its history, poverty, drinking, politics, love and death and include several references to the Roman Catholic Church.

Sister Act

0
Sister Act BLOS

This divine musical comedy is based on on the smash-hit film Sister Act.

Disco diva Deloris Van Cartier has dreams of hitting the big time. But when she walks in on a ‘hit’ of a different kind, the cops hide her in the last place anyone would think to look – a convent! At first, Deloris – disguised as ‘Sister Mary Clarence’ – has trouble adjusting to life under the strict rule of Mother Superior. But when she transforms the convent’s choir into the most glorious new musical act in town, Deloris forms a lasting bond with her new-found friends… and the gang that’s chasing her finds itself up against an unstoppable team of soulful sisters!

Sister Act features an original score by 8-time Oscar® and 10-time Grammy Award® winner Alan Menken (Little Shop of Horrors, The Little Mermaid, Enchanted).

Don’t miss this spectacular and hilarious tribute to the universal power of friendship!

Directed & Choreographed by Anthony Williams
Musical Direction by Jonathon Chalker

WHITE RABBIT PRESENTS: Eternal Tapestry, Woven Skull & Sophie Cooper

0

Eternal Tapestry

Psych-rocking space travellers Eternal Tapestry hail from Portland, Oregon, USA and were founded around a joint worship of the music of Neu!

The initial trio released a number of LPs, CDs, EPs, and even cassettes, including Vibrations, New Dawn, Mystic Induction, and Altar of Grass (all in 2007), and Declining Star and Sea of Silk (in 2008).

In 2009, the band added saxophone and synth; they released The Invisible Landscape, Palace of the Night Skies, The Hidden Revealed (cassette only), and the live CD-R Spring Tour.

Eternal Tapestry signed to Chicago’s Thrill Jockey in 2010 to record their first album as a quintet, Beyond the 4th Door; it was released in early 2011, and was followed in July of that year by Night Gallery, a collaborative long-player with Sun Araw.

Dawn in Two Dimensions was released in June of 2012, while World Out of Time followed in November. Never slowing down in their release schedule, the band spent the next two years offering up limited-edition releases in the form of small run cassettes, such as a split with California dream-tropicalia duo Mondo Lava, as well as tour-only CD-Rs or the extremely limited Guru Overload, a vinyl-only release.

Amid all these lower profile releases, the band spent a fair amount of time camped out in a remote cabin in the small town of Zigzag, Oregon tracking tunes for their massive 2015 double album Wild Strawberries. The album saw release early this year, again on Thrill Jockey.

Eternal Tapestry will also be joined by Tom Relleen on bass from The Oscillation.

Woven Skull

Woven Skull is the vessel with which the sound of larks, lakes and the high breeze off tree tops travels from its source to the comfortable confines of rigid amplification, battered drum skins and rusty chimes into repetitive dark melodies.

Since 2008, the core trio that make up Woven Skull have been gathering together in the Northwest of Ireland in a place called Leitrim which is known for its tales of ghosts, ‘tree folk’, under water creatures and the constant battle calls of the ancient Tuatha De Danann that can be heard on Letirim’s Iron Mountain. These are the surroundings and forces that influence the sound that Woven Skull create: a contrast of minimal drones, repetition and psychedelic distorted riffs all layered in constant unconscious rhythms.

Sophie Cooper
