Non Canon celebrates the release of his third album - Certain Stories - via record label Last Night From Glasgow with an intimate seated show at Folklore Rooms.
Joined by Jacob Glew (formerly of Fighting Fiction) and B-Sydes.
Non Canon is the indiefolk alter-ego of Bristol musician Barry Dolan. Starting as a tentative side project away from playing big noisy riffs as Oxygen Thief, this diversion from his usual writing habits made Dolan’s poetic lyrics increasingly precise and personal, with his intimate guitar playing embellished by strings, a horn section, piano, and electronic elements.
Certain Stories, the third Non Canon album, is a solo record filled
with collaboration; some songs feature lyrics adapted from friends’ poetry and short fiction, others have guest vocals by tour buddies who have become lifelong pals, and the artwork was painted by an old school friend as she listened to the songs.
Twelve tales of sadness, loss, climate anxiety, fiercely-guarded hope, and quiet nights in, Non Canon - Certain Stories is for fans of Idlewild/Roddy Woomble, Tim Kasher, Bright Eyes, and that bit at Manic Street Preachers gigs where James Dean Bradfield plays some acoustic songs on his own.
