BILL CALLAHAN: SOLO RESIDENCY (USA)
Y-E-S! ‘One of the greatest songwriters alive’ (The Washington Post) is coming to Brussels again! Alongside Paris (Cafe De La Danse), London (the prestigious ICA, Institute of Contemporary Arts) and Dublin (The Button Factory), Bill Callahan also lands at the KVS in Brussels. Callahan - who always stubbornly charts his own path - decided to descend on Europe this autumn, stopping only in about four European capitals. On the menu: a multi-day residency each time where Callahan is accompanied only by his guitar and delightful baritone voice.
His purely understated songwriting skills still get under your skin after all these years. Just think of classics like ‘Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle’ (‘09) or “Apocalypse” (’11). In recent years, he seemed more productive than ever with quality albums like ‘Shepherd in a Sheepskin Vest’ (2019), ‘Gold Record’ (2020) and ‘YTILAER’ (2022). The latter was once again - and rightly - showered with rave reviews:
The Guardian: ‘The one-time misanthrope returns with beautifully understated reflections on dreams, death and the human condition.’ As well: ‘An endlessly fascinating journey.’ And: ****
Mojo: ‘As a songwriter he's giving it all he's got, with philanthropic zeal turning on the idiosyncratic charm and capturing hearts all over again.’ Alsook: *****
SUPPORT: JERRY DAVID DECICCA (USA)
Opener will be Texan songwriter Jerry David DeCicca. Also producer of ‘outsider’ songwriters like Ed Askew (Tin Angel), Chris Gantry (Drag City) and Will Beeley (Tompkins Square), And because he insists on mentioning it: ‘He lives in the rural town of Bulverde, TX with his two dogs, three cats, five toads, and wife.’
FOR FANS OF:
Leonard Cohen, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Karen Dalton, Aldous Harding, Bon Iver, Cate Le Bon, Johnny Cash,...
