Οι Tiger Lillies επιστρέφουν στη Θεσσαλονίκη

Οι Tiger Lillies, το βρετανικό εκκεντρικό avant-garde cult συγκρότημα που συνδυάζει cabaret, vaudeville, music-hall και θέατρο δρόμου, επιστρέφει στη Θεσσαλονίκη με ένα νέο ανατρεπτικό και αναμενόμενα εκκεντρικό πρόγραμμα στις 5 Απριλίου στο Principal Club Theater στο Μύλο.

Morality is dead! Long live pleasure!

Παρασκευή 5 Απριλίου 2013 - Principal Club Theater

Κατέχουν δικαιολογημένα τον τίτλο ως ενός από τα πιο avant-garde συγκροτήματα του κόσμου, αφού οι Tiger Lillies δεν σταματούν ποτέ να εκπλήσσουν, να σοκάρουν και να μας διασκεδάζουν με το πρωτότυπο και αμίμητο τους μουσικό ύφος, αναβιώνοντας την μακάβρια μαγεία των cabaret του προπολεμικού Βερολίνου και συγχωνεύοντας την με την ωμή ενέργεια της punk.

Martyn Jacques: Vocals, Accordion, Piano
Adrian Stout: Contra Bass, Musical Saw, Theremin, Vocals.
Mike Pickering: Drums, Percussion

Press quotes:
«Devilish but Delicious!» - Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard
«A decadence that touches on the divine!» - Charles Spenser, The Telegraph
«Unique, unapologetically offensive, raucously funny.  Music that you'll immediately want to inflict on all your friends and family, whether they like it or not.» - Belinda Willson, The Independent
«There is nothing else like them. Any description of them is an injustice - they are completely peerless!» - Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand
«This delicious dark cabaret is Kurt Weill as scripted by Aleister Crowley, and the execution is impeccable throughout. Phenomenal.» - Ian Gitins, The Guardian
«Just brilliant and utterly fantastic!! You'll never hear more perverse and twisted as well as haunting and sorrowful songs» - Marc Almond
«Bigger, prouder and fleshily engorged with the pustule throb of the garishly gaudy and gloriously obscene.» - Time Out London
«The crime of singing the truth» - Michael Su, Singapore Business Times
«A Tiger Lillies gig is a journey into wild emotion that passes right  through melodrama and out the other side into bizarre beauty.» - David Gale, Evening Standard
«In an ideal world, the Tiger Lillies would represent Britain in the Eurovision Song Contest.» - David Rose, The Times Online

«Imagine Kurt Weill conjuring up images of pre-war Berlin while a falsetto vocalist screams, squeaks and squawks his way through every number like some rambling madman.» - Tim Arthur, Time Out London
