Richard Dawson (Ritual Community Music)

English singer and guitarist Richard Dawson is a skewed troubadour at once charming and abrasive. His shambolically virtuosic guitar playing stumbles from music-hall tune-smithery to spidery swatches of noise-colour, swathed in amp static and teetering on the edge of feedback. His songs are both chucklesome and tragic, rooted in a febrile imagination that references worlds held dear and worlds unknown. https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/events/ritual-community-music Ritual Community Music 27 September, 2015 The Tote, Collingwood Presented by Liquid Architecture Audio: Mara Schwerdtfeger LIQUID ARCHITECTURE is an Australian organisation for artists working with sound.
