Chris Connelly solo performance

Saturday, July 18, 3pm. Free admission.

Corbett vs. Dempsey presents a solo acoustic performance by Chris Connelly.

One of the prime movers in the heyday of Industrial Rock, Connelly was a core member of Revolting Cocks and Ministry, as well as Martin Adkins's post-punk band Pigface.  In the early nineties, Connelly launched a rich solo career, exploring the heavy and the hard, as well as the delicate and the balladic.  His luminous record The Ultimate Seaside Companion, made as The Bells, is slated for re-release on CvsD in the near future, replete with unissued material and unused original cover design.  A brilliant singer and songsmith, his work has a dramatic edge, teasing at the heart with melancholy or menace.  On this rare solo event, which will be completely unplugged, Connelly will perform songs as well as some spoken word.  Please join us for one of the unique voices in contemporary music.
