HORIZON PROMOTIONS presentsKID CREOLE & THE COCONUTS
'The Creolian Bye Bye Birdy' Tour
+ MIKE PANTELI (SWEET GROOVES / HEART / CAPITAL)
Kid Creole and the Coconuts announce their farewell UK tour.
A word from Kid Creole (August Darnell):
"Hello Music Lovers of all ages and persuasions. Welcome to the Lifeboat Party! 15 years ago, I said it was time for me to retire. I lied. It was not. 10 years ago, I said, "Now it is truly time for me to retire!" I lied. It was not. Now, it is 2025. I'm not going to say it again. I'm just going to do it. I
t's been an amazing journey from my little neighborhood in the Bronx to every continent in the world. I could not have done it without one major companion - MUSIC.
It is very fitting that the first BYE BYE BIRDY TOUR should take place in Great Britain because I am told that is where the first 'foreign' Kid Creole and the Coconuts Tour took place in 1981. I say 'I am told' because I have no recollection of such details. I trust the OTHERS who have better memories. And I say 'foreign' because the band was born in New York City. The music will live on. Of this I am certain. It is ageless.
May I introduce the cast? Of course. I am not alone on that stage. I am extremely fortunate to have by my side:
Coconut - Roos Van Roosum
Coconut - Charlotte De Graaf
Coconut - Kristina Hanford
M.D./ Keys - Mike Gorman
Keys - Tim Vine
Bass - Otto Williams
Guitar - Jamie McCredie
Guitar - Mark Anthony Jones
Drums - Dave Imbue
Trombone - Barnaby Dickinson
Saxophone - Edgar Jones
Trumpet - Nathan Bray
I can guarantee two things: We're gonna have a funky good time. And you're gonna find out who Annie's Daddy really is. At last.
HaChaChaCha!
Tropical Gangsterly Yours,
The Kid
