Ticket Giveaway! Robyn Hitchcock

Tuesday, June 4, 8 PM, Neptune

513e0261107dd0.04820346.jpg
When asked about his album, Olé! Tarantula, Robyn Hitchcock said, “To me, the whole record is sadness cloaked in fun. But under that sadness, more fun."

Such seeming contradictions are what make Hitchcock a credible narrator to his incredible kingdom of song, the one he’s built on a foundation of dreamlike, whimsical, tragic comedy and set to gorgeous and slightly askew melodies for the last 30 years. In Hitchcock’s universe, adventure rocket ships, exploding, twist-off heads and crawling things are the norm, as are supersonic harmonies and an ever-present chiming guitar sound. Through the years, those heavenly refrains, the harmonicas and the hilarity conspired and drew a blueprint for alternative pop as we know it. Is it any wonder he attracts stellar company when he settles in to make a record?
