LAJOS PARTI NAGY RECOMMENDS THE TIGER LILLIES CONCERT!
 

The Tiger Lillies defy any singular description and operate within their own eccentric definitions. Formed in 1989, they tour the world both with the Shockheaded Peter production and indipendently, developing a dedicated following from New York and San Francisco in the US to St Petersburg in Russia.
 



They are an extraordinary three-piece band with a large cult following in London. The band is fronted by singer Martyn Jacques, who trained himself as an opera singer with a castrati style voice of heartbreaking beauty, whilst living alone above a strip joint in Soho for seven years. Accompanied by drummer Adrian Huge, whose appearance was described by David Byrne as James Joyce on drums, and double bass player Adrian Stout, Jacques plays accordion and sings savage and passionate songs about prostitutes, drug addicts and losers, his voice soaring and growling like a man possessed.
 



Musicians:
Martyn Jacques - vocals, accordion
Adrian Huge – drums, percussion, toys
Adrian Stout – contrabass, musical saw, vocals
