Love And Other Crimes - The Songs Of Lee Hazelwood
It’s when you feel you’ve always known a melody, or that lyrics are narrating your own personal experience, that a song has the potential to become timeless.
The songs of Lee Hazlewood, such as ‘These Boots Are Made For Walkin’, ‘Some Velvet Morning’ and ‘Summer Wine', are some of those songs - recorded in his heyday by such luminaries as Nancy Sinatra, Elvis Presley and Dean Martin, they have been revisited since by everyone from Lana Del Ray to Megadeth.
Find out why his songs of falling in and out of love continue to strike a chord with modern musicians, with an evening of performances that put the reclusive whisky-voiced ‘old cowboy’ back in the spotlight, curated by Wyndham Wallace – his manager and friend during the last years of his life, and also the author of Lee, Myself & I: Inside The Very Special World Of Lee Hazlewood – and Ed Harcourt, the Mercury Music Prize nominated singer, songwriter, producer, and avowed fan of Hazlewood’s work.
Joining a band that includes Harcourt, Adrian Utley (Portishead), Jim Sclavunos (The Bad Seeds), Romeo Stodart (The Magic Numbers) and Tom Herbert (Polar Bear) will be a cast of singers, including Josh T Pearson, Matthew E. White, Caitlin Rose, Lawrence (Felt) and Kathryn Williams with more to be announced.
