Levellers to Play Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury
FOLK-punk band the Levellers play a concert with a difference at The Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury, next month.
A screening of their documentary film A Curious Life will be followed by a full live acoustic performance.
A Curious Life is told through the unique perspective of Jeremy Cunningham, the band's bass player and artist, and directed by former Chumbawamba frontman Dunstan Bruce. It focuses on the Levellers' phenomenal success between 1988 and 1998 before nearly disintegrating in a train wreck of drink, drugs and creative drought.
Despite reaching their lowest ebb, the band never split up, and after a few years in the wilderness they re-invented themselves as a self-managing collective with their own studio, label and Beautiful Days festival, and in the process became unexpected survivors of the UK's famously fickle music industry.
