RED DRESS & THE SUGAR MAN to Play Melbourne Fringe Festival
One need not be familiar with the work or style of Tom Waits to appreciate Red Dress & the Sugar Man, one need only have an inkling of the complexities of heartbreak, passion and inner turmoil and a love of great music, moving words and powerful vocals. If you love Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Bonnie Raitt or Etta James and don't mind a walk through the seedy side of town, you'll love Red Dress & the Sugar Man.
Scripted and performed by singer/songwriter and Waits obsessionado, Marisa Quigley, Red Dress & the Sugar Man is not a Tom Waits "Tribute Show". Rather, it pays homage to Tom Waits and his music, drawing heavily on his inimitable writing style and featuring his songs from the '70s until now. Backed by a live band and sumptuous 3-part harmonies, Quigley does not attempt to mimic Waits' unmistakable gravelly tone but recreates them in a soulful blues/jazz style all of her own.
Show Details: Red Dress & the Sugar Man will play from Tuesday, September 20th - Sunday, September 25th at The Butterfly Club, 5 Carson Place, Melbourne, at 10 PM.
Ticket prices run between $25- $32. For more information and tickets, visit www.thebutterflyclub.com.
