PETER FARNAN COMES HOME TO THE GEORGE FOR THE LAUNCH OF HIS ALBUM, ‘HOME’
Peter spent dark, sweaty evenings upstairs from George Lane at the Crystal Ballroom with his post-punk band SERIOUS YOUNG INSECTS. As the 80s unfolded he moved into the pop mainstream with BOOM CRASH OPERA before establishing a career as a theatre composer and sound designer.
His new solo album, ’HOME', sees Peter returning to his art-pop roots with music that is both idiosyncratic and universal, and which echoes some of the artists - The Beatles, Talking Heads, XTC - who first inspired him. Peter’s band even opened for XTC in the Ballroom.
Sharing the bill with Peter is CATHERINE MCQUADE. Catherine’s recent album, titled ‘ KISS HIM GOODBYE’, brings together all of her experience as an award winning film composer, chanteuse and bass player. The result is a rich, dream pop mix of Jazz, Latin, Classical, electronica and ‘60s film score references.
