Nick Hallett

Artist Description

Nick Hallett attempts once again to bridge the gap between artified and folksy via the format of popular song.  He is joined by a cast of gorgeous and unique women's voices: Jennifer Black, Katie Eastburn, Daisy Press, and the legendary Alice Playten.  This cabaret-song cycle of exclusively original material focuses on lyrics about women and maybe even for women, written by a man who is not generally identified as the world's leading expert.  Ruminations on the gender divide and the struggle for pleasure abound, as do premieres from Nick's "vernacular opera"-in-development, in addition to wit-drenched gems from the back catalog.
