Cabaret Voltaire

Cultural events: mostly music, but sometimes poetry and other things

Jesca Hoop

Saturday 21 October 2023

St Mary's Church, Totnes

Discovered by Tom Waits, and brought on tour by Peter Gabriel to sing in his band, it was a phone call from Elbow’s Guy Garvey that saw Jesca Hoop move to the UK from California. Her most recent album “Stonechild”, produced by John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding, This is the Kit), received huge acclaim from fans and critics alike, and it’s easy to see why: her beautiful songs, rooted in the folk tradition are intricately detailed, acoustic-led pieces that teem with ideas.

Information

Starts 8:00 P.M.
General admission £18.00

Booking fee applies
