Only Child return to celebrate the release of their fifth LP. Alan O'Hare's eclectic ensemble play emotional music, with an emphasis on storytelling. Built from folk roots, with the sounds of acoustic guitar and fiddle dominating, the music has been compared to The Waterboys, Van Morrison and Dexys. Only Child have released four critically acclaimed albums and three EPs since 2012.
Tonight, they will be joined by special guest Jeff Young, a writer for radio, television, stage and screen, and one of BBC Radio Drama's most acclaimed dramatists. He has worked on many arts projects in Liverpool, including with Bill Drummond. The author of the Costa-shortlisted Ghost Town, Jeff's latest release, Wild Twin, is a love song to cities.
