star 29 Mar 2008 - Ginger New York Residency

Ginger - Every Thursday In April @ Pianos, NY
Thursday April 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th

Advance tickets available at Ticketweb

Hey kids,
Hey cuties,

I'm playing New York.
Yeah, that's right....AGAIN!!!

Only this time it's again... and again, and again and...y'know

Again

Every Thursday, beginning April 3rd, I'll be appearing at Piano's with the best players in New York. Only the creme de la soul will be playing, with myself, YOUR favourite songs from my huge stash of choons.

Okay, okay, I get to decide exactly which songs are your favourite songs, but that's besides the point.

I'll be playing crazed up versions of my (er, your) absolute toppest tracks from my catalogue with various musicians, using various styles, with various instruments, from people with various hair-cuts. Most likely different people every week. Depending on who's the best people for the job that week. Every week.

EVERY GOD DAMNED WEEK.....I tell's ya.

On a Thursday.

Not only that but I'll be presenting the absolute weirdest, unique, odd-ball, bizarre and generally artistically essential of NYC talents on the bill. A different line up of talents every week.

On a Thursday.

From April 3rd.

Each bill will be rounded off with a colourful barrage of low-brow hi-jinx from New Yorks top comperes, MC's and orators, keeping the proceedings lively, sparky and warm.

An evening like this could only happen in New York. And only on a Thursday.

And only at Piano's.

Come with me on a journey of sonic and visual experimentation, where all tension will be jettisoned out on the sidewalk, and the remaining effervescence will permeate every pore and fibre of your fine persons, leaving you bathed in wonder, showered in amusement and douched with amazement.

Entertained? You will be.

Or your money back.

And we're not planning on parting with a penny.

Oh yes.

Oh, good God yes.

Be there, or be elsewhere.

And why would you be elsewhere?

That's right, you wouldn't.

Oh, no.

Oh, yes.

Amen

star 28 Oct 2007 - Ginger - Acoustic in New York

Yes, that's right, I'm playing an acoustic show in New York!

The Knitting Factory. Thursday November 1st, 9:00pm.

I'm so excited. I mean a guy's senses can be knocked about playing Wildhearts shows at nose-bleed volumes for anything up to 2 hours a night, without breaks for air. And while being quite the popular evening out, sometimes... well, you just wanna play something a bit more subtle.

And have a little chat.

And play some non-Wildhearts stuff.

And I ain't done one of these for a while. I seem to remember really enjoying playing acoustic shows.

Like I said....excited.

So, if you're in the area why not come along? It'll be fun. And you'll be able to hear the next day.

star 13 Oct 2007 - Wildhearts - Brooklyn 19th Oct - Change of Venue

The Wildhearts gig at the Hook in Brooklyn on Friday 19th October has had to be moved to another venue (Club Exit) due to the original venue (The Hook) unexpectedly closing. The full info from the promoter is below:

Hey guys - this is for everybody who bought tickets to the Wildhearts gig at the Hook. If you know anybody else who was planning on coming to this show, we HIGHLY recommend forwarding this along.

SO. Ha. We're in a little bit of a tight spot. We'd booked this phenomenal show at the Hook, where we've held so many ridiculously awesome shows in the past, and then the Hook CLOSED. We still want to have the show, obviously, so we've simply moved it to Club Exit. It's still in Brooklyn, right off the G in Greenpoint, not terribly difficult to get to and still fairly awesome. The Wildhearts are coming all the way from ENGLAND; there was no way we were cancelling this gig. We're still bringing along all the openers - Generals & Majors, Children of the Unicorn, the Matt Truman Ego Trip, et al. We'd never let you guys down.

So let everybody you know in on this - Wildhearts at Club Exit on Friday the 19th - and then join us for a second night with Ginger and the boys aboard the Temptress on Saturday.

Address for Club Exit is

Club Exit
149 Greenpoint Ave
(between McGuinness and Manhattan Aves)
Brooklyn, NY 11222
