About this event
We first came across Julian Gaskell as Leigh Delamere and the Gordanos when we were looking for a band after a last minute cancellation at our first Blue Moon Festival. Instead of Leigh Delamere, we got Julian Gaskell and His Ragged Trousered Philanthropists. Julian has since played several Sunset Sessions with outstanding fiddle player, Cally Gibson. Here again today, the Ragged Duo.
“A Kernewek Tom Waits, a berserk Klezmer Band, Joe Strummer gone Weimar Jazz or Kurt Weill punching the Pogues”- West Briton
“ Julian Gaskell howls and hollers as if Tom Waits came from a Roma family and punk had its origins in cabaret and circus”- Folk world
“He really is an original…declamatory, vulpine vocals ranting and roaring his splendidly acrid, protestful lyrics over a glorious, urgent, ramshackle, garage blend of Balkan-Kpezmerisms and French Gypsy Cafebilly. The ghosts of Blyth Power and Beef heart lurk in the wings, but when you think you’ve got it all figured out, he throws in a great romantic, slovenly delivered torch song like ‘Left Luggage’. Few things this exhilarating come along very often, the antidote to tweefolk”- Ian Anderson, Froots
