Description

One of the most amazing songwriters we have had perform in Newton Abbot, Lyndon Morgans returns and with a new album - 'Of Gods and Men.' - the first album to be released under his own name, having put out his previous eight albums under the ?Songdog' identity. Over the course of the record?s 15 tracks, Lyndon continues his exploration of his favourite themes - the passing of time, lost love, sex, death, ageing and psychic overload.
Lyndon's tracks have been featured on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6Music and has recorded a session for Tom Robinson's show. His music praised by the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Robert Wyatt.

?Lo-fi and alluring, like a heady mix of Eels and Lambchop ... A fully qualified peer of such droll, self- deprecating Americans as Kurt Wagner, Stephin Merritt and Mark Everett." UNCUT 8/10 (Andrew Mueller)
?Soaring, Mellotron-inflected arrangements enhance Morgans? acutely observed lyrics.? MOJO 3* (John Aizlewood)
?Morgans? songs are a musical version of Diane Arbus? photographs. They create stark word snapshots and capture moments in a life of music, love, mistake, and regret. You only write these songs if you paid attention while living.? AMERICANA UK 8/10 (Michael Macy)
?If he were a Wainwright, he?d be Loudon III, not Rufus ....I?d give a body part to write poetry like this.? RnR 5* (Andrew Darlington)
?He has a brilliant way of investing despair and dysfunction with romance. Stellar stuff indeed.? FATEA (Mike Davies)

Spacious town centre pub, with an old feel to it. Lots of low beams, exposed brickwork, bare wooden floors and other features add a certain amount of charm to its character.
