THE Urban Voodoo Machine will be making an appearance at Gabefest in Durley on Friday.
They celebrated their 15th birthday with the release of 15 Shots From The Urban Voodoo Machine - a collection of singles featuring appearances from the likes of Wilko Johnson (Dr Feelgood), Sami Yaffa (New York Dolls) and Jim Jones (The Jim Jones Revue).
Whether you’re looking for politics and depression in While We Were All Asleep, Rusty Water and Coffin Nails, remembering the dead with Goodnight My Dear and Fallen Brothers, a Wilko Johnson collaboration in Help Me Jesus or a Latin dance in Crazy Maria – 15 Shots has it all.
The Urban Voodoo Machine are a murderers’ row of rogues dressed in black and red, led by the ever enigmatic Paul-Ronney Angel, who spend their time exploring Gypsy Blues, Americana, New Orleans Jazz, Rock’n’Roll and the wares of Mr Jack Daniels.
With comparisons to The Pogues and Tom Waits, The Urban Voodoo Machine are considered to be one of the most impressive live acts in the country – terrifyingly bizarre, hysterically funny, a riot for the eyes, sensation for the ears and determined to overcome all negative aspects of Brexit, austerity, division, fear and the threat to live music venues across the land
