Dressed all in white, Lloyd Cole walked onstage and commenced the show without a word performing 'Don't Look Back'.
For the crowd heading to Brighton Dome on this damp Hallows’ Eve, no tricks on offer: instead, irresistible musical treats from this 80s veteran singer-songwriter. It’s just shy of 40 years since the release of his iconic album ‘Rattlesnakes’ with his band The Commotions
Earlier this year we welcomed Lloyd Cole’s 12th solo studio album, produced by Chris Merrick, former Adam & The Ants drummer & producer. Still pushing his song writing boundaries, this time around Cole combines his trademark insightful lyrics with a minimalist electronic soundboard.
“How would you rate yourself as a Lloyd Cole fan out of 10?” asks the stranger sitting down next to me at the Union Chapel. It's a question which I take some time to ponder.
