The CAT Club presents The Sunday Showdown with
EDGAR JONES live in concert.
Sunday 23rd November at 6.30pm.
Twenty years ago, Edgar Jones released the Mercury Prize nominated 'Soothing Music For Stray Cats,' featuring an incredible mixture of New Orleans R&B and rock’n’roll, early soul, Doo-wop and Bebop jazz. The album was recorded in Edgar’s living room on an eight track cassette Portastudio donated to Edgar by Johnny Marr.
Noel Gallagher simply had this to say: “It bent my head, man. it’s probably one of the best records I have ever heard.” He even tried to buy Edgar’s Liverpool flat to use that living room for his future projects.
Amongst others, Edgar has played with Paul Weller, Ian McCulloch, Saint Etienne, Johnny Marr and the La’s. His nineties group, The Stairs are perhaps the ultimate Liverpool cult band.
As a solo artist and with various groups, he has an astonishing body of work, both behind and, no doubt, in front of him.
A stunning live performer, Edgar Jones is gonna blow your mind.
Happy Trails.
