Simple Kid London Residency And New Single

added 27 November 2003 at 14.33

Simple Kid has unveiled details of a new single release and a special three night London ‘Simple Club’ residency in December where each night will feature totally different interpretations of 'The Irish Beck’s repertoire.

Firstly Simple Kid (a.k.a. Ciaran McFeely) will be re-releasing the previously limited track ‘Truck On’ on 2M Recordings on January 19. The single will be available on CD single, DVD single released on and limited-edition blue-vinyl 7’ formats, all of which feature exclusive B-sides.

Simple Kid will also be playing a series of special London shows next year. The gigs will take place at the 12 Bar Club, Denmark Place, London WC2 between January 20 and 22.  Each themed night will feature a completely different show whereby The Kid¹s songs will be played in an alternative fashion at each.

The Kid will choose lucky-dip style from the following five themes (as descibed by one of his representatives) on each of the three nights:

  1. Skiffle Kid: “The Kid goes deep (South) with ‘Deliverance’ style duelling banjos and violin.”
  2. Sample Kid: “A night of technological tomfoolery with Simple Kid, armed with his trusty laptop.”
  3. Simple Kid Brother: “Following their autumn 2003 series of Irish dates, big brother Al joins his younger sibling for a night of onstage semi-acoustic McFeely hi-jinks”
  4. Complicated Kid: “Marvel as Simple Kid demonstrates his mastery of a different musical instrument on each song in this solo-set."
  5. Karaoke Kid:  “Simple Kid invites the fans to grab their 15mins and perform karaoke versions of his golden greats whilst he relaxes amongst the audience. Nice work if you can get it”

Doors are at 7:30pm each night and tickets are £7.00 (although fans can buy a £15.00 carnet which will guarantee them entry to all three nights). 

Simple Kid will also be playing two shows in his homeland with The Coral in December. The dates in full are:

  • Belfast Waterfront (w/ The Coral) (December 11)
  • Dublin Olympia (w/ The Coral) (12)
  • London 12 Bar Club (January 20)
  • London 12 Bar Club (21)
  • London 12 Bar Club (22)
