SUMMARY:Jim White (USA)
LOCATION:Gosforth Civic Theatre
DESCRIPTION:special guest Ben De La Cour (USA) - im WhiteQuote from Jim –
  “Musician first\, writer second\, visual artist third. Discovered by Da
 vid Byrne\, championed by many. Father to country music star Willow Avalon
 .”Jim White …….Gets around. When he’s not releasing his own critic
 ally acclaimed solo albums he splits time producing records for other song
 writers\, exhibiting his visual art in galleries and museums across the US
  and Europe and publishing award winning fiction. White (born Mike Pratt) 
 has released seven eclectic\, totally uncategorizable albums plus another 
 six even stranger side projects.Known for his intricately layered\, highly
  cinematic production values\, numerous songs from White’s back catalog 
 have appeared both in film and television. His Primus-esque Word-Mule was 
 featured in the pivotal Heisenger episode of Breaking Bad\, and more recen
 tly his song Static on the Radio\, a duet with Aimee Mann\, landed in the 
 closing credits of the feature film El Camino.UK fans may recognize White 
 as the narrator and defacto tour guide for the award winning BBC documenta
 ry\, Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus\, a road movie set in the rural So
 uth\, which the LA Times described as “Decidedly strange\, delightfully 
 demented.”Prior to becoming a musician White led an aimless\, diverse li
 fe\, working countless menial labor jobs: dishwasher\, landscaper\, lifegu
 ard\, cook\, surfboard laminator\, road builder\, culminating with thirtee
 n long years driving a taxi cab in New York City (where he met David Byrne
  and signed to Byrne’s Luaka Bop record label).White has just completed 
 a memoir\, Incidental Contact\, which Mojo magazine described as being “
 Unputdownable”. Based on a series of uncanny coincidences that befell hi
 m during his days driving that taxi in New York City. Two chapters of Inci
 dental Contact\, The Bottom and Superwhite\, have been published in the li
 terary music journal Radio Silence\, with Superwhite being awarded a Pushc
 art Prize.White was a pro surfer. He served as literary commentator for th
 e National Endowment of the Arts. He was a European fashion model. Samuel 
 Beckett once played a practical joke on him. There’s lots more non linea
 r information that doesn’t really fit the usual bio format. But that’s
  Jim—he gets around.Special guest Ben De La CourA natural storyteller\, 
 Ben de la Cour’s visceral songwriting grabs you by the heart and doesn
 ’t let go. Weaving evocative stories of desperate characters with his si
 gnature “Americanoir” sound\, de la Cour shines a glaring light on the
  human condition.\n\nBoletos: https://wegottickets.com/event/714270
