We are thrilled to welcome back, all the way from London, the excellent Helen McCookerybook! What's more, she's going to be supported by local singer-songwriter Anna Kissell, who wowed audiences at last year's Xmas Pop verses Poets. One for the diary!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. She has collaborated with Gina Birch, Vic Godard, Lester Square, Robert Rotifer and many more. Her album Showtunes from the Shadows, was released in 2025 on vinyl, CD and download formats on the Tiny Global label: https://helenmcc.bandcamp.com/.../showtunes-from-the-shadows
At this show, she will be playing new songs from her forthcoming album, The Darkside Truth, due to be released on Tiny Global later in 2026.
