Mellowtone presents... Dan Wilson & The Counterfactuals, Granfalloon, Dorcas Seb + Beaten Tracks DJs

Liverpool’s Mellowtone  Records present an intimate night of music downstairs at the Everyman featuring Dan Wilson & The Counterfactuals, Granfalloon, Dorcas Seb + Beaten Tracks DJs...

Granfalloon

Currently working on his fourth album; a double, potentially triple album… Granfalloon continues the work of his third album, Positive Songs, to focus more on traditional songwriting, and not quite traditional storytelling, to chisel out small, beautiful moments. It showcases this non-traditional storytelling with subject matter like... the meta-narrative approach to the dangers to you and the relationships around you that writing can have, expressing love through mathematical formulae, and 8 year old girls catching bees in Tupperware boxes, all with a heavy dose of Richard Lomax’s absurdism.
“My kind of artist” Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music
"Utterly enchanting" Crack Magazine
"Music that wouldn't sound out of place in a Wes Anderson film"  Drunken Werewolf
"Like a mix of Beck and the Polyphonic Spree, trying everything they can find in a music shop" Wall of Sound

Dan Wilson & The Counterfactuals

Dan Wilson is a singer/songwriter and musician with The Cubical/Los Separatistas and a solo artist with Dan Wilson & The Counterfactuals. He is known for his unique lyrical and vocal style and is also a writer of poetry and short stories. This is music that creaked of old wooden bars and dark corners. Music aged in barrels and smelling of a days work well done. Blues soaked Folk and Rock with Jazz undertones to whet the appetite.

“Wilson makes Waits sound like Tiny Tim" The Guardian
“A British Johnny Cash”  Dave Sardy (producer, Oasis, Primal Scream)
“Genius”  Mojo
