Wreckless Eric with Amy Rigby

Event information

Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby are a two-piece rock and roll group who have individually been making distinctive and original music for decades: he a British iconoclast and wild-card survivor of the early Stiff Records, she as a long-standing heroine of the New York pop scene.

Their 2008 debut album Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby and their live show have enjoyed rapturous critical acclaim in the US, UK & Europe. In 2010 the pair released Two-Way Family Favourites, a shimmering collection of songs written by other artists, on their own Southern Domestic Recordings label.

Uncut magazine called them pop archaeologists supreme. Wreckless Eric recorded the legendary single Whole Wide World back in 1977. Since then he has made countless albums in different guises, moving between bubblegum, pop, grunge, psychedelia and techno, but always remaining true to the DIY spirit of his early days on Stiff.
