   About Troy Faid
Troy Faid hails originally from Lincolnshire but has made his name throughout Yorkshire as a talented guitar player and a songsmith of quiet originality. His songs, eloquent in conception and dynamic in performance, are insightful , wistful stories told through fingerquick guitar refrains in a voice grown early-old. As a festival regular and journeyman performer, he is perhaps best experienced live, but his beautiful debut album Last Weeks Tune deserves to be heard again and again. It is available from selected retailers and online from www.NormanRecords.com

The Devils Jukebox





Dec 8 2008 11:16 PM

ALOHA!
Presenting the DEVIL’S JUKEBOX live at the PACKHORSE, (Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, opp. Library pub), THIS FRIDAY, the 12th of DECEMBER.

Supported by TOM ATTAH- a seriously amazing bluesman from the delta basin of South Yorkshire, X-RAY CAT- rockabilly hep cat and seriously all round nice chap, and the man, the legend, the serious seriousness that is SERIOUS SAM BARRETT.

This will be our last gig for at least three months if not longer…
But on the bright side it’s also hopefully the launch night for our brand new CD – featuring 13 songs of slippery sin.
So saddle up and join us for a night of jezebel jazz, torrid tango and the rowdiest of pre-war blues.
Doors 8pm
£4 in.
Yours, with Sleazonal Greetings, Dr Bordello
