BILLY SULLIVAN AND BAND - LIVE 2024 | Special Guest: PERRECY

In the organizer's words:

Billy Sullivan is a singer/songwriter from Watford. Formerly the frontman of The Spitfires, Sullivan has embarked on a solo career since the band disbanded in 2022 and released his critically acclaimed first album "Paper Dreams" in March 2023.

The brand new singles "Winter Of Discontent" and "Frozen Town" were released earlier this year and set the theme and lyrical direction for Sullivan's new material.

"In our country, the rich and powerful are not punished for lying to us, breaking ministerial regulations, profiting from conflicts of interest, stealing from the public purse and breaking the law. While families struggle to pay the bills, children go to school hungry and the working class feel hopeless and defeated."

Special guest: Perrecy

The fact that British cult figure Morrissey has devout fans is nothing new in indie circles. Since the singer set out with his former band The Smiths in 1982 to give unhappy teenagers all over the world a voice, his music has found enthusiastic fans from South America to Australia. Also in Ingolstadt.

This is where Perrecy lives and works, and his awakening dates back to 1984, when the single "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" was released. Later, during a vacation in Barbados, Perrecy observed German tourists mindlessly warbling reggae songs without noticing the sometimes chauvinistic content and came up with the idea of translating English songs into German and interpreting them on the ukulele.

A little later, after attending a Morrissey concert (at a time when it was not yet a political position to go to such a concert), the man, who was not yet called Perrecy at the time, had the idea of trying his hand at the works of his favorite musician.

Shortly afterwards, the first Perrecy album "Du bist das Opfer" was released, offering a colorful cross-section of the work of the Bavarian bard with Hamburg roots. From "This charming man" to "My girlfriend is in a coma" and "The first of the boys to die", it contains all the top hits of the hero from Manchester.
