Limited Ticket Alert

Saturday 8th February
Whitby Pavilion Theatre
Live in Concert - The Red Barn

I cannot tell you how excited I am for this evening to arrive and to be serenaded by the incredible macabre supergroup The Red Barn featuring Marcella Puppini and Katharine Blake!

We really are going to be spoilt by these fabulous musicians, incredible voices and a stunning repertoire with tales of love, passion, obsession, betrayal...and murder ballads.

Don't miss this one off opportunity to experience their ethereal presence in all their glory - link to purchase below.

Please check out The Puppini Sisters, Mediaeval Baebes and Miranda S*x Garden too on youtube, their back catalogue is phenomenal!

Sharing the bill is The Urban Voodoo Machine, a supremely talented collective of London-based musicians who have been bringing the spirit of the carnie to an ever-growing audience of dedicated fans these past few years.

Sounding like they should be from the Deep South, the band are self-styled purveyors of 'Bourbon-soaked Gypsy Blues Bop'n'stroll'.

Led by the darkly charismatic, Norwegian-born Paul-Ronney Angel, their music draws deep from a dirty well where Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Dick Dale are enjoying a burlesque all-nighter with Ennio Morricone!

NO Dynamic pricing! Link below to purchase Advance tickets £21 Inc booking fee or £25 on the door.

The queens of vocal harmony weave their storytelling magic with the Astonishing Voodoo Machine!
