Stewart D'Arrietta - With America's Least Wanted
Event description
Stewart D’Arrietta and his band America’s Least Wanted bring a blistering show with songs from LEONARD COHEN, TOM WAITS, RANDY NEWMAN plus more – and some too from his 5th album, My Magnificent Narcotic.
With his trademark cyclonic musicality and irreverent growl, D’Arrietta and his band inhabit the underworld of the lyrical tragedies & jocular narratives that explore the gamut of life.
He romps through the repertoire with his characteristic razor wire and whiskey vocal style, dark, laconic humour, and passionate performances. Beneath the roaring bluster, the sinewy strands of song weave poignant and compelling stories of love, lust and loss – D’Arrietta’s favourite themes. These are tunes that talk to each other!
With deft and devilish irony, Stewart D’Arrietta covers the terrain from tenderness to terror, and everything along the way. A compelling show - legendary songs, magnificent musicians, an unforgettable night. Not to be missed!

Stewart D’Arrietta - Piano and Vocals
