HANK WANGFORD
and the LOST COWBOYS
with BJ Cole, Martin Belmont, Kevin Foster & Roy Dodds
Friday 27th January 2012 - The Manor Ballroom, Cobbold Street, Ipswich (click here for map).
Doors
open 8pm.
What better way to beat those winter blues than a great night of the finest country music this side of Tallahassee. For the past 30 years Hank Wangford has been a leading British torchbearer for country music, illuminating us with insights such as "I ain't married but the wife is". Hank said "It's in my nature to send things up, even things that I love. If you make people laugh you've opened them up."
Peppery regulars will know that Hank Wangford exudes star quality, and The Lost Cowboys never disappoint with their deadpan humour, fine harmonies and second - to - none musicianship.
The Lost Cowboys are
-
BJ Cole, unique innovator on the pedal steel guitar who has carved out a formidable reputation as a session musician. BJ has recorded and toured with The Verve, REM, Devon Sproule, Emmylou Harris, Elton John, Marc Bolan, Sting and of course Peppery favourites Los Pistoleros (see the almost endless list on his website).
-
Martin Belmont, stratocaster and the twangiest 6 string bass, the best hard core country guitarist around, ex - Graham Parker and the Rumour, Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash.
-
Kevin Foster, bass guitar. Doll by Doll bassist goes hard country - a powerhouse of C&W and honky tonk rhythms.
-
Roy Dodds, drums. Ex - Fairground Attraction and sideman extraordinaire.
‘If you want originality, bite, twang and cutting wit, there’s only one
man to see. His name is Hank Wangford.’ – New
York Times http://www.hankwangford.co.uk
