Oct 14 2009 Ellesmere Port Pioneer

AFTER a busy year writing, recording, and playing shows both here and in America, influential cult singer Chris T-T is bringing his live show to the Liverpool Academy on October 23.

Throughout October, British pop’s street-poet laureate will join his old friends The Broken Family Band on their final farewell tour.

Following on from this, Chris will embark on a run of intimate solo gigs up and down the UK as well as playing at the all-day Lexpalooza Lite event helping to raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign.

This will be the first chance to hear tracks from his forthcoming album Love Is Not Rescue due for release early 2010.

This will be Chris’s seventh studio album and shows a change of direction from last year’s rockier, heavier Capital -the final part to his acclaimed London Trilogy released on Xtra Mile Recordings in 2008.

Chris has stripped back his sound and laid bare lyrics over delicate melodies in what is an introspective and pensive album showcasing Chris’s song-writing talent.

Also to be aired for the first time during these shows will be some of Chris’s more experimental works.
