Bohemian Jukebox presents Jayne Powell + The Authors + Dave Wilkie
+ Perrot’s Folly
Jayne Powell
Beautiful vocals weaving into rich harmonies, intricate guitar melodies, and skilfully thoughtful percussion with a country-folk sound. Jayne and her band bring a breath of summery fresh air to your ears. Their music is the sort of tranquil stuff that stuns you into a quietness not even the most hectic day could disturb. An array of eclectic influences from old time waltzy laments and locked in mellow grooves to quirky country soul. Jayne and her band have supported a variety of signed artists, such as; Nizlopi, and Kathryn Williams, as well as making numerous TV appearances, live radio sessions. They have independently released their own recordings, Dandelion Clock, The Chapel Session, and Could Be Anything.
The Authors
The Authors are 3 guys who love writing and playing music focused on melody, musicianship and lyric. Shades of Led Zeppelin, Cat Stevens, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Albert Hammond, Crosby Stills & Nash, and Jim Croce are all in there.
Dave Wilkie
Wilkie writes gentle, delicate songs of experience. Like you might expect a one-man acoustic Suede to sound like, if they only wrote and played at 3am.
Perrot's Folly
Chinook’s poetic, witty and fantastically wordy debut ‘Answering’ is nothing short of a masterpiece. Fact. In Perrot’s Folly he joins forces with fellow Mill’s and Boon member Cribbler. Naming themselves after a tower in Edgbaston that could well have inspired Tolkien they play excellent finger picked Psych-Folk. Think John Renbourn meets Syd Barrett in Ivor Cutler’s kitchen and you’re halfway there…
“A lovely little affair, mostly centring around singer-songwriters but with other stuff too. (Some quite surprising other things at times.) I liked the vibe, and indeed the value - four quid gets you four musical acts and a chit that lets you get a shot of absinthe for a pound. You can’t say fairer than that.” (russl.wordpress.com)
