Colour’s first event in Birmingham after two years success in Wolverhampton will feature a headline set by Minnesota folk-blues artist Charlie Parr, with support from locals Mellow Peaches and the Young Runaways.

The evening will also feature projected vintage slides, homemade cakes and the Colour DJs playing a nice mix of folk, Americana and leftfield indie taking place in the newy-refurbished Victoria, an authentic Victorian pub serving cask ales and premium spirits.

Charie Parr
Charlie has toured the UK several times before, astounding audiences with his contemporary take on American musical tradition. His rousing, heartfelt songs speak plainly of the darker places ordinary folks often lose themselves and of the hope that gets them through.

Charlie counts among his fans Alan Sparhawk of Low and comics legend and aficionado of the blues, R. Crumb. He is touring in support of his new album Roustabout, which is released on 17 February on Misplaced Music.
