The fabulous Rory McLeod returns to the Fremantle Workers Club after his very successful concert here on February 1st last year Rory is a truly unique modern travelling troubadour weaving his Cockney spruik into highly rhythmic Latin/ reggae/ blues inspired music, a one man soul band and once seen never forgotten.
Rory will be at the Club, 9 Henry St, on Wednesday April 23rd at 7.30pm. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 on the door if still available. They can be purchased from the Workers Club or from Ticketbooth.
Rory’s truly unique performance style includes using tap shoes, acapella, harmonica, guitar, trombone, spoons, finger cymbals, and whatever else he can get his hands on!. He has played harmonica and guitar with MICHELLE SHOCKED, ANI DI FRANCO, MICHAEL FRANTI, TOWNES VAN ZANDT, with the West-African guitarist ALI FARKE-TOURE and TAJ MAHAL.
His eccentric melodies are infused with influences from Flamenco to blues, through to Celtic, East European and Calypso rhythms creating a style of music and songwriting that has been described as "Intimate, revealing, political and powerful."
"Poetry and dance-stories with verve, sharpness, humour and warmth about people and for people."
"Great songs to dance to, infectious rhythms, flying harmonica!"
