Der AStA-Arbeitsbereich für Kultur präsentiert:
JENNY DON'T & THE SPURS sind international bekannte Western-Rebel-Cowboy-Punks aus dem legendären und einflussreichen Rock'n'Roll-Untergrund von Portland, Oregon.
Nach dem tragischen Tod von Schlagzeuger Sam Henry (WIPERS) besteht die Band aus Sängerin Jenny Don't (Don't, Ladies Of The Night), Kelly Haliburton (P.R.O.B.L.E.M.S., Pierced Arrows, Defiance etc.) und Dean Miles (Rancid Vat).
Die sonst eher aus Punkrock- und Garage-Zusammenhängen bekannten Leute huldigen hier alten, klassischen Country- und Protestsängern aus den 1940er und 50er Jahren wie Patsy Cline, Ernest Tubb, Hank Williams Sr. oder Loretta Lynne. Musik aus einer Ära, in der die Grenzen zwischen Rock'n'Roll und Country noch verschwommen waren und in der Musiker wie Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash und Carl Perkins zusammen touren konnten, ohne dass jemand mit der Wimper zuckte.
Auch mit neuem Line-up und nach unzähligen Shows in den USA, Europa und Australien sind die Intensität und Energie ihres Livesets ein Muss für alle, die temperamentvolle, von Garage inspirierte Country-Musik mögen, die mit Aufrichtigkeit und Überzeugung gespielt wird.
EAMON MCGRATH musste seine Tour leider absagen. Als Ersatz spielt ROB MOIR: Toronto’s Rob Moir looks back at five consecutive years of life on the road with the release of his third album SOLO RECORD (Northern Americas - Canada, Make My Day Records - EU, released November 16, 2018). The writing, which took place in Melbourne, Australia during some rare downtime from the road, sees the new material staying true to Moir's brand of honest songwriting and clever turns of phrase in his lyrics.
SOLO RECORD is a stripped down, back-to-basics effort that would fit nicely in a record collection next to Bruce Springsteen, The Replacements and Wilco. It features songs like 'Sometimes You Gotta Go', where Moir reassures a younger version of himself that it's okay to follow his passion and that against all odds, a version of living his dreams can come true. In 'Love Is A House On Fire', Moir sings of what it's like to regret waiting too long to express feelings to a loved one.
In 2013, Moir released the critically acclaimed LP Places To Die, of which Rolling Stone wrote in their 4 star album review, "Moir isn't conservative; there's something urgent in his songs, that are never too sure of themselves, and whose longing hasn’t found a home yet. Moir sings his romantic sighing songs with punk rock folk in his heart and in addition proves a great sense for quiet singer/songwriter moment”.
2015 saw his second album Adventure Handbook, a burst of life and energy backed by his Toronto band The Great Lates. Once again, Rolling Stone commented on the full band release, "Moir's compositions are now so confident they go straight to your heart".
Moir has toured Europe with Grammy-nominated Neko Case and shared the stage with fellow alt-folk artists such as Frightened Rabbit, Frank Turner and The White Buffalo. With solo performances at international festivals BIGSOUND, Music Matters and Live at Heart, as well as multiple successful tours in Australia, Canada, Europe, UK and Japan, Moir has proven his ability to silence rowdy audiences with his intimate performances, quick humour, and captivating stage presence.
Perpetually on the lonesome road, Rob continues to expand his audience as he performs his songs across the world, making fans the old fashioned way - one dedicated believer at a time.
