About this event
Charlie Harper + Helen McCookerybook
Solo sets + interview
Charlie Harper is a musician, painter, and writer, born in London, England, and schooled in Sussex. Inspired by the 60s blues scene and an acoustic guitarist in the 60s flak scene, he formed the punk rock band U.K. Subs in the mid-70s. John Peel played their song on his radio show, subsequently making the U.K. Subs a worldwide recording artist.
Helen McCookerybook's songs cover everything from the social impact of new technology to wry observations about relationships. Now a solo guitarist/vocalist influenced by Linda Lewis, Nick Drake and Jake Thackray, her musical journey started as a bass player in a Brighton punk band in the late 1970s. Her previous bands The Chefs and Helen and the Horns were regulars on BBC Radio 1’s John Peel show; nowadays Radio London’s Gary Crowley and BBC6’s Marc Riley and Gideon Coe and play her new music.
