Beggars of Life
The Dodge Brothers and Neil Brand play live to a screening of the classic 1928 silent film "Beggars of Life".
Renowned film critic Mark Kermode - who plays bass and harmonica - will be joining his bandmates and acclaimed composer Brand for a musical accompaniment to Beggars of Life: the seminal 1928 silent movie featuring Wallace Beery as a rail-riding hobo and Louise Brooks as a girl on the run.
The Dodge Brothers (Mike Hammond, Mark Kermode, Aly Hirji and Alex Hammond) play an exuberant hybrid of country blues, rockabilly, jugband and skiffle.
"Never has film and a band been more perfectly matched that 'Beggars of Life' and The Dodge Brothers - deep dish Americana, rail-riding hoboes and Louise Brooks - they were made for each other" - Bryony Dixon, curator of silent film, British Film Institute.
The performance has been met with glowing reviews following London shows, and the band the first ever to accompany a silent film at Glastonbury Festival in 2014.
