Vinny Peculiar

Vinny Peculiar returns to Liverpool with a full band and some very special guests for a multimedia performance in the Music Room. Featuring songs from his fabulously diverse, fourteen album recording career including the latest critically acclaimed album, How I Learned To Love The Freaks.

Vinny Peculiar (aka Alan Wilkes) grew up in Worcestershire and trained as a nurse before signing to Manchester cult label Ugly Man Records (former home to Elbow). He’s since put out fourteen albums of literate autobiographical pop music over a twenty-year career touring band, solo and duo shows in the UK, Ireland, Europe and the US.

Past work associations include Bill Drummond (KLF) and his various bands have included ex-members of The Smiths, OASIS, Aztec Camera & The Fall. He’s written and recorded as Parlour Flames, the band he formed in 2013 with ex-OASIS rhythm guitarist, Bonehead.
