Martin Metcalfe & Richard Jobson songs and Q&A.
Skids frontman Richard Jobson is performing with the help of Goodbye Mr Mackenzie/The Filthy Tongues frontman Martin Metcalfe.
In the past two years The Skids have toured constantly to ecstatic audiences sold out London's Albert Hall and even hit the top 30 in the UK National Chart. They have released two albums whilst Richard himself has written 2 fictional books and toured solo in the UK. Martin's band the Filthy Tongues have had major praise for their two dark & dystopian LPs Back To Hell & Jacob's Ladder and has collaborated in various other musical guises, but the surprise of 2019 must have been the reunion of his big 1980's band Goodbye Mr Mackenzie who also toured to ecstatic crowds culminating in a sold out Glasgow Barrowland show on 20th December. He also paints exhibits & has had a book of his artwork released.
Richard & Martin will perform some unplugged songs from the Skids & Metcalfe's back catalogue plus a few of their co-writes from the recent UK top 30 Skids LP 'Burning Cities' & The acoustic Skids LP 'Peaceful Times'
Don't miss this unusual and enthralling performance.
