Moriarty UK Tour Dates Nov 09

Critically acclaimed French-American folk roots quintet Moriarty return to the UK in November for their eagerly anticipated debut UK headline tour that includes a London show at Dingwalls. Moriarty have been steadily building a loyal fan base in the UK supporting Son of Dave, Jane Birkin and The Dø, as well as playing several sold out headline shows in London. In their native France, Moriarty have sold in excess of 125,000 copies of their debut album, Gee Whiz But This Is A Lonesome Town, on cool independent label Naïve.

Moriarty are Rosemary Moriarty (singer, xylophone, thumb piano, spoons, tambourine, scotch-tape trumpet), Arthur Moriarty (acoustic guitars, drum-suitcase, piano), Zim Moriarty (double-bass, acoustic guitar, music box, suitcase drums), Thomas Moriarty (chromatic and diatonic harmonicas, kazoo, drilling machines, jew's harp) & Charles Moriarty (electric and resonator guitars). Moriarty also play with Vincent Talpaert Moriarty (drums/double bass) & Eric Tafani Dubessay Moriarty (drums).

Dressing like prohibition outlaws, their beguiling theatrical performances float between folk, country, blues and cabaret, set somewhere around Dallas in the 1930's, the Russian Taïga and Paris. An infectious melody is carried by the luminous and unique vocals of Rosemary, supported by unsettling lyrics and oozing train-like beats. Formed in Paris at the turn of the century, the five musicians write songs like novels or short movies. With identities split between America and Europe they are guided by the surreal, believing in an animist fashion that some objects have a soul: a squeaking floorboard, a hotel bell, the rhythm produced when battering a well-travelled suitcase, a taxicab dispatch microphone, a whisk and other chance findings crawl into their songs. Do not miss this unique and creative band when they play the following dates:

November 2009
1st Leicester - Musician
2nd Bristol - Louisiana
3rd London - Dingwalls
5th Manchester - Ruby Lounge
6th Newcastle - Cluny
7th Edinburgh - Electric Circus
10th London - Union Chapel w/ Andrew Bird
All dates with support from Richard Walters
