Hamell on TrialTuesday 22nd April
Doors: 8.00pm
£12.50 Advance/£15.00 OTD
Hamell on Trial is the musical alias of folk punk hero Ed Hamell.A one-man explosion, he is loud-as-war one minute, stepping off the microphone to
whisper to an enthralled audience the next.
Hamell’s unique and dynamic performance
style is informed by politics, passion, intelligence and an irreverent sense of humor.
Armed with a battered 1937 Gibson acoustic guitar that he amplifies mightily a
strums like a machine gun, a politically astute mind that can’t stop moving, and a mouth
that can be profane one minute and profound the next, Hamell sets his sights on the
new America.
He shoots straight with his audience, whether unraveling topical issues
or sharing confessional tales from his own past.
In addition to world-class songwriting, a Hamell show is a multidisciplinary experience
drawing from the worlds of theater, stand-up comedy and storytelling.
His performances invoke thoughts of the great rebellious satirists and social commentators
of the past, from Lenny Bruce to Richard Pryor to Bill Hicks.
