The Best Monday Night You'll Have This Year

The Word's picture

On Monday, February 27th, Word In Your Ear productions present Eliza Carthy playing at the pub across the road from the Word office.

This unique meeting of artist and venue, re-scheduled from January, is the latest in a string of special shows which have set new standards for comfort, intimacy and amusement.

We pride ourselves in giving our readers and subscribers the opportunity to experience legendary performers in small venues, thereby lessening at a stroke the distance between artist and audience. We've already put The Divine Comedy and Wilco Johnson in this special frame and on February 27th we proudly present Eliza Carthy, the crown princess of the English folk revival, accompanied by her award-winning live ensemble, in the upstairs concert room of the Lexington on London's swinging Pentonville Road, a short walk from King's Cross.

We equally pride ourselves on offering unique entertainment experiences at affordable prices. Tickets are £24, which is a fraction of the price of tickets for Eliza's last appearance in the capital.

There is also a full supporting cast including recent podcast guests Emily Barker and the Red Clay Halo plus magisterial chamber-pop quintet Left With Pictures, who recently triumphed at Islington's Union Chapel. We also have a top-class team of hosts and hostesses including Mark Ellen, Kate Mossman and David Hepworth to fill any gaps between the acts with tests of skill, prize competitions and top pop platters.

Furthermore and most clinchingly we offer you the assurance of spending the evening with like-minded people who are not so busy texting, gossiping and running back and forwards to the bar that they spoil your enjoyment.

Book your tickets now and you won't be kicking yourself in a few weeks time for not having done it sooner. You can get a further idea of what you would be missing below:

Wow...

When you ask for a cut and blow dry in Robin Hood's Bay you really get your money's worth!

Lovely family, beautiful music.

Hope to see you there, Hannah!

Likewise

I'm looking forward to it. Eliza Carthy is a wonderful singer and her band are HOT.

I can't make the new date...

However, We Got Tickets were very prompt in organising a refund, which puts them in my good books.
