MURRAY LACHLAN YOUNG - Techno Shanties
With a brilliant combination of: bizarre ballads, saucy shanties and rattling good yarns Murray Lachlan Young - one of the UK's foremost performance poets and a regular fixture on BBC Radio 4's Saturday Live & BBC resident poet at the Glastonbury Festival - leads us down a deeply amusing road to many strange places. With backing from the ambient techno soundscapes of DJ Rad Rice and his own fine earthy baritone, Young combines a heady combination of traditional and contemporary popular art, to create an often hilarious, always unique take on the dark corners of our modern society.
The brilliant satirist and performance poet conjures dark images of contemporary western consumer society for a World Premiere for Laugh Out Loud.
