’Recalling Gabriel-era Genesis with a dash of Bush and Bowie’.
The Observer ‘Resurrects the brassy swagger of Bellowhead’ (Financial Times), Jon Boden’s critically acclaimed album ‘Afterglow‘ (Hudson Records) released October 2017, has attracted considerable media attention, including a BBC Radio 2 playlisting for the first single from the album ‘All The Stars Are Coming Out Tonight‘. As well as ecstatic audience reactions at live shows. Live, Jon performs both solo and with the new eleven-piece big band, Jon Boden & The Remnant Kings.
If you can get down to Totnes on 17th March you will be able to catch Gong playing live at Unit 23 Live, the former South Devon Arts Centre. The band started out in the late 60's and are still going strong, albeit no longer with the original line up. They have a worldwide following and included in their March tour are venues in such cities as Paris, Oslo, Copenhagen and Sao Paolo in Brasil !
The first-time promoter, a fan, is putting them on in Totnes as he lives locally and hopes to help out local voluntary organisations by donating any proceeds.
