The Floating Palace Preview

Jan 11, 2012

Posted by Stuart Huggett

A package tour assembled by cult psych pop songwriter Robyn Hitchcock, The Floating Palace sees the sometime Soft Boys leader and a handful of favoured friends collaborating on one another’s songs, or any other tunes they fancy that evening. Tonight, these friends include KT Tunstall, Martin and Eliza Carthy, Giant Sand’s Howe Gelb and Abigail Washburn, so The Floating Palace is likely to drift into folk and country waters. Hitchcock and co’s good humour should keep the evening buoyant.

His huge archive of magazines, flyers and vinyl is either an invaluable research tool or a bloody pain. He occasionally runs tinpot record label Dizzy Tiger, DJs sporadically and plays live even less.
