Anne Pigalle
The Tallyman's Dark Omnibus
and Des de Moor

Pirate Jenny's moves into its tenth year with two performers new to the club.

ANNE PIGALLE is a bona-fide cult figure: originally from Paris, she moved to London in the post-punk era, working with the likes of Michael Nyman and Subway Sect and releasing records herself on the legendary ZTT label. During the 1990s she was based in Los Angeles, working as a photographer and actor with the likes of film director Donald Cammell.

Now back in Britain, she's appearing at Pirate Jenny's in an intimate in-concert performance singing her own material from albums like The No Title Amerotic and Spirit of Ecstasy. The sultriness of the Left Bank, the down at heel surrealness of Tom Waits, the wasted diva chic of Nico and the spirits of Dietrich and Piaf combine in a unique and compelling performer.

Perfectly complementing Ms Pigalle are the sonorous tones of West Midlands-based cyber caberettist THE TALLYMAN'S DARK OMNIBUS, combining lyrical electronic backdrops with guitar and a sensibility derived from Scott Walker and Jacques Brel. Expect haunting and atmospheric stories of a fragile and fragmented world.

DES DE MOOR, one of Britain's leading chansonniers, and regular Pirate Jenny's host, also participates with his regular mix of classic chanson and salty original material in the company of pianist DAVID HARROD.
