John Otway

20 Sep, 8 - 10:30pm @ Red Brick Building [ Live Music ]

John Otway
Rock veteran John Otway is an English singer-songwriter who has built a sizeable cult audience through extensive touring, a surreal sense of humour and a self-deprecating underdog persona.

Otway dubbed himself “rock’n’roll’s greatest failure” after many unsuccessful attempts to produce a second hit single to follow his 1977 classic ‘(Cor Baby, That’s) Really Free’ with Wild Willy Barrett.

Expect madcap mayhem and some scintillating stunts from a man old enough to know better … and also to be surprised at just what a showman and musician really lies underneath the tomfoolery.
