The Urban Voodoo Machine

Venue: Lichfield Guildhall

Friday 13 September 2019: 8.00pm

Re-scheduled from the Spring season

Take a good dollop of musicianship, add in a soupcon of mystery, and you have the ingredients for a good night out with The Urban Voodoo Machine. International tours and musical mayhem have been the calling cards for this group, a showcase for gin soaked full blooded gypsy blues and rock, with blasting guitars, bass and drums, shrieking saxophone, washboard shenanigans, and the pure unadulterated sense of fun that leader Paul Ronney-Angel always brings with him. We can guarantee that you won’t have seen a band quite like this at the Guildhall before. Bring an open-mind for a night out that you will never forget.
