FRASER
+ THE BETH STEEL
Forever changing, consistently unique yet, always somehow the same, the
Band Of Holy Joy began life as gutter chansoniers using junk shop
instruments to propagate a brute romantic madly literate form of
dispossessed urban folk music.
Since then the band have scaled a few heights fallen down in one or two
gutters, broken up, glued themselves together, toured the world, released
a fair few albums for the likes of Rough Trade and fully explored other
media by presenting two audio visual song plays.
These days the junk shop instruments of old are long gone, and guitars,
violins and visuals very much to the fore. But the band continues to write
about the same outsider concerns with the same measure of spirit and care
and man, they still put on a show. The Band of Holy Joy, forever
changing, consistently unique, always the same. Join the adventure as they
pass through your town.
