Angie Palmer
At 17 Angie left England for Europe to follow in the footsteps of folk troubadours like Dylan, ending up in Paris for seven years, busking for a living playing bars, cinema queues and the Metro. A twist of fate led her to meet her writing partner, Paul Mason, a philosopher from Manchester Metropolitan University in a Cafe Philosophique and together they returned to England.
Back in the UK Angie's third CD Road gained four and five star reviews. Road made it on to the long short list for the Mercury Prize in 2004 and Angie's music is being championed by Bob Harris amongst others and has featured on film soundtracks in both England and France.
Her last CD Tales of Light and Darkness mixed strong narrative songs with smaller, more personal reflections.
The new CD, – Meanwhile, as night falls . . . – is available now via Proper Distribution.
Tickets, costing £7.50, will be available on the door or in advance at www.wegottickets.com
