Details

Robyn started his recording career with The Soft Boys and was responsible for the swansong album Underwater Moonlight and for bringing psychedelia to the post-punk UK indie scene. Later, with a successful solo career in tow he achieved cult status at home and across the Atlantic as one of the most enduring and eccentric singer/songwriters and live performers that England has produced. Robyn Hitchcock and his friends featuring Alessi's Ark, Graham Coxon, Green Gartside, John Hegley, Mike Heron and Max Eastley play a selection of his own and other insect-related songs with added sound effects, including clicks, rubbings and hisses. Plus the premiere of Mandible Raga, a devouring instrumental, and the Abdomen Suite, a mating drone. Songs include 'Madonna Of The Wasps', 'Insect Mother', 'Antwoman', 'Red Locust Frenzy', and a cover Wire's classic 'I Am The Fly'.
