Acclaimed UK singer songwriter Vinny Peculiar aka Alan Wilkes returns to the Music Room for a full band performance showcasing new album The Curse of Vinny Peculiar (working title) alongside other favourites from his extensive back catalogue, including songs originally recorded as Parlour Flames, the band he formed with Oasis guitarist Bonehead.
Vinny Peculiar, often described as a poet laureate of the everyday, is known for his sharp wit, poignant storytelling and a knack for capturing the quirks of modern life. His music blends elements of indie, folk and pop, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshingly original.
He's been variously described as ‘an undersung national treasure’ (UNCUT), ‘a warm-hearted Morrissey’ (Q Magazine) and ‘the missing link between Jarvis Cocker and Roger McGough’ (Irish Times). Previous work associations include Bill Drummond (KLF), Luke Haines (the Auteurs), Jah Wobble (PIL) and his various bands have included ex-members of The Smiths, Oasis, Aztec Camera and The Fall. He’s also written and recorded as Parlour Flames, the band he formed in 2013 with ex-Oasis rhythm guitarist Bonehead.
