Duke Special at The Glee Club

Time: 19:30

Duke Special brings new album to Glee Club Nottingham

One of Ireland's most successful musical exports is set to play Glee Club Nottingham on Wednesday 16 May.

Duke Special is an artist aptly named. Dynamic, musically ambitious and bracingly eccentric, with his inimitable style and lush musicality.

Hailing from Belfast with a sound that is self-confessed "hobo-chic", Duke Special - AKA the endlessly inventive Peter Wilson - is once heard, never forgotten.

He's embarking on a tour to celebrate his latest album, Oh Pioneer. Duke is still in the studio but gives an idea of what to expect from the new record:

"Wooden Fingers Puppet Theatre Company, The Bank of Ideas, a banned Iranian children's book about a fish, a pirate who wants to retire, a bar man who hears people's stories whether he likes it or not, the human condition and late night conversations with friends on the roof of the 'Oh Yeah' building about your dreams are just a few of the ingredients to go into Oh Pioneer."

Glee Club music promoter Markus Sargeant said: "Duke Special is one of the most captivating, inspiring and enjoyable artists I have had the pleasure of presenting in ten years of music at The Glee Clubs. Every time he returns he manages to sail higher seas of irresistible creativity. A true gem!"
