SUMMARY:Frank Hurricane + Edwin R Stevens
LOCATION:Glasgow The Doublet Bar
DESCRIPTION:Live at The Doublet - “Frank is the patron saint of small to
 wns with big hearts\, of outcasts in outreach. He repaints his surrounding
 s without judgment\, a voice from the margins that’s both bard and barte
 nder...Frank’s a seer and a singer\, a poet laureate of the rusted under
 belly of America\, rust I often found myself scratched on growing up. He f
 inds transcendence in the asphalt of Tennessee’s most scorched country 
 – giving a reverent Americana profundity to PCP warnings\, haunted devil
  towns\, pimpin’\, Shrympin (sic)\, and yeah lonely Juggalos at the loca
 l Burger King.” -Raven Sings the Blues"Edwin R Stevens is a recording ar
 tist and writer from Llanfairfechan\, Wales\, now living in Glasgow\, Scot
 land. From 2008 to 2023\, Edwin made music under the Irma Vep moniker\; ut
 ilising 4 and 8 track cassette recorders\, zooms and laptops to make every
 thing from abstract tape collages\, stripped back and tender VU informed s
 ongs to Henry Flynt style half improvised guitar ragas. Between support wo
 rker roles and cafe and bar jobs\, Edwin recorded and toured the UK and EU
  almost constantly (including two tours of the US)\, and made nearly forty
  releases as Irma Vep (and other pseudonyms)\, including NO HANDSHAKE BLUE
 S (2017\, Faux Discx/Comfortable on a Tightrope)\, WASHING MACHINE (with J
 on Collin\, 2020\, Early Music) and EMBARRASSED LANDSCAPE (2020\, Gringo R
 ecords)In 2020\, Edwin finished his first book\, SEAGULLS (very bon books)
 \, A loose novel of fourteen interweaving stories revolving around a fake 
 Pontins Holiday Park on the north Wales coast. Legendary fiction writer\, 
 film maker and poet\, Dennis Cooper called it “a wild and exquisite litt
 le masterpiece”.In 2021\, Emyr Williams (RIP) asked Edwin to make an alb
 um under his own name for his label Ankst\, resulting in "God On All Fours
 " in 2023. Partially recorded in Penhesgyn studios on Ynys Mon by John Law
 rence and at home in Glasgow\, the album saw a slight aesthetic shift with
  cleaner production and a more ‘traditional’ band based sound. With a 
 new found freedom in writing under his given name\, Edwin incorporated ele
 ments from his short stories into the song writing process\, evolving it i
 nto a more narrative and lyrical based music. “A friend told me I was to
 o old to have my vocals buried in the mix. He told me to grow up\, basical
 ly…”Following the release of GOAF\, the ‘hangover record’\, A PLAG
 UE OF GIMPS (wrong speed records\, 2026) was written and recorded quickly\
 , a minimal and absurd 10 song affair dwelling on grief\, hereditary dumb 
 f*ck blues\, false memory\, nuclear bunkers and blood-letting gimps amongs
 t other things.“Perhaps it’s too simple to say that making music under
  his own name allowed Edwin to be more honest\, direct and personal but it
  certainly feels that way to anyone listening…the space in the music lef
 t for the voice is like leaving a door ajar to let the monster in. "A Plag
 ue Of Gimps" is a beautiful and personal record.” - Wrong Speed Records.
