Into The Light'Banshees Nite

Dublin Castle, Camden Wednesday 11th Dec 7.30pm

Siouxsie And The Banshees nite Into The Light. Laurence Hedges will be in discussion with Sue Webster regarding all things Sioux shaped from 1980 to 1987, as Part 2 of his in-depth Banshees biography series hits the marketplace.

Into The Light is the title of the book, and not only is that the title of a Banshees banger from the era, but also an indication of their huge popularity from fourth LP Ju-Ju onwards, as Punk melts into Goth and chart returns and touring increase for the band.

A fascinating discussion around the book will no doubt ensue, with questions from the floorbooks will be available to buy on the night. Get a fewChristmas is round the corner!

Alongside Laurence we are very pleased to welcome to the discussion acclaimed artist and unabashed Banshees acolyte Sue Webster who's 2019 visual biography I Was a Teenage Banshee combines personal memoir with a visual narrative of her evolution as an artist, and describes how listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees helped guide her through a troubled adolescence.

Webster's most recent body of work Full Leather Jackets (2019-2021) continues her exploration of Siouxsie and the Banshee's ongoing influence on her life and work.

There will also be tonight a suitably Banshees inspired DJ set from Tony Bugbear but more over steel yerself for a brilliant interpretation of Siouxsie and co.'s output as tonight's event will climax with the return of excellent Siouxsie and the Banshees homage Painted Bird back to perform their stunning interpretation of this singular, incredible music.

As they rightly say, this may be a tribute to the music of Siouxsie and the Banshees But It's not about looky-likeys. We dont play dress-up, we just kick ass on the music...Ninety minutes plus of prime Siouxsie, all eras, all lineups all done to perfection. Close yer eyes and it's them. Uncanny. And brilliant. Cant wait!
