- ROMEO STODART (The Magic Numbers) & REN HARVIEU -
Ren & Romeo (The Magic Numbers) are playing some unique duo shows together.
They will be playing much loved songs from their respective catalogues, new songs yet to be heard, perhaps a cheeky cover or two and are open to wherever the night takes them. If you?d like to experience the intimacy of song writing, story telling and what it feels like to have found kindred spirits, you won?t want to miss this special show.
Romeo Stodart
Romeo Stodart is the lead singer/songwriter in the much loved London based rock n roll harmony group The Magic Numbers. The band comprising of two pairs of brothers and sisters have released five critically acclaimed albums to date including their self-titled Mercury Music Prize nominated, million selling debut.
Outside of The Magic Numbers, Romeo has collaborated with a vast array of artists including writing songs for & with the late Jane Birkin, Edwyn Collins, Natalie Imbruglia, Kathryn Williams, Amadou & Mariam and The Chemical Brothers.
He has contributed his unique guitar playing style to various projects, from Damon Albarn?s Africa Express collective since its inception, touring with Jimmy Webb & The Webb Brothers, to playing banjo, guitar & harmonies Spiritualized?s Sweet Heart Sweet Light album.
Ren Harvieu
Anyone who believes there are no second chances needs to be re-introduced to Ren Harvieu. Seven years after Through The Night, her Top Five debut album, having overcome a life-threatening injury on the eve of it?s release, the darkly enigmatic Salford-born singer-songwriter returned with the critically acclaimed Revel In The Drama (Bella Union) a brilliant, bolder and broader take on her unique pop classicism, a compelling diary of struggle, a release of pent-up tension and a celebration of liberation and survival. It should?ve been a celebration but as luck would again have it, the world went into a global pandemic on the week of release. Timing is everything but Ren Harvieu is timeless as she is inspirational.
Now in the production chair alongside her writing partner Romeo she is creating her most brave and compelling music yet, a new album is scheduled for release in early 2025.
