SUMMARY:Toria Wooff
LOCATION:Manchester St Michael's Church
DESCRIPTION:- Lancashire’s woman in black Toria Wooff returns to Manches
 ter to haunt the stage of Hallé at St Michael’s on Halloween night. Fol
 lowing the success of her eponymous debut album (championed by the likes o
 f Uncut\, Clash\, Shindig\, Record Collector\, 6 Music and Radio X) and la
 st year’s sold out show at YES\, Toria will be joined by her full band p
 laying songs from both her first record and her yet-to-be-released sophomo
 re record.Containing tales of love\, loss\, hope\, relationships and woman
 hood\, the eponymous debut album is both an exorcism of torment and an inv
 itation to feeling only what is good and as the record takes listeners dee
 per into her bittersweet world\, it’s only a matter of time before count
 less others will fall under her spell.. Tugging at the cloaks of contempor
 ary folk souls Jake Xerxes Fussell or Richard Dawson\, it offers a contemp
 orary twist on the Anglo folk tradition through a bloody cocktail of class
 ic rock origins and transcends time as it nods to the lyrical narratives o
 f Led Zeppelin\, Fairport Convention and Townes Van Zandt – all the whil
 e infused with inspiration from her collection of gothic literature and hi
 storical texts. ‘The self-reflection in the title demonstrates a life li
 ved\,’ Toria tells. ‘The songs are chapters to dip in and out of\, mom
 ents immortalised in time\, bound together by nothing more than the human 
 experience.’Recorded with partner in rhyme and intuition\, producer\, mi
 x engineer and guitarist James Wyatt in his Sloe Flower studio\, the album
  honours songwriting’s roots with an authenticity captured by its delica
 te restraint. Only allowing pedal steel and wurlitzer to fill out the inti
 mate space at just the right moment\, opener The Plough introduces Toria
 ’s affecting tone and guitar with intoxicating simplicity before a sonic
  expansion which explores the physical and metaphysical truth of womanhood
 . Grief comes to the fore in Song For A\, which assuredly acknowledges hel
 plessness in the face of an inevitably bad situation and is then healed by
  the love and commitment which eeks through the cracks on reassuringly upl
 ifting live favourites That’s What Falling In Love Will Do and See Thing
 s Through. Toria’s story-first approach closely reflects the emotions of
  moments in time\, and they’re never written down\, only manifest as a r
 esult of her inspired process.A painter\, poet\, songwriter and storytelle
 r\, music is just one facet of Toria’s wildly creative imagination which
  metamorphoses in many forms. Steeped in gothic romanticism\, pagan and Ge
 rmanic tradition\, Toria’s unique view of the world is enchanting throug
 h an alchemy of sound and vision\; a magical blend of her own spellbinding
  folk-rock concoction. ‘It’s mostly about making mundane things in lif
 e beautiful\,’ Toria says. ‘There’s a pragmatic reason behind all I 
 do\, and I always take the most aesthetically pleasing approach. I combine
  everyday language with prettier\, longer\, and poetic words so the surfac
 e might have one meaning but there will be many others the deeper you go. 
 The most beautiful words are desperate\, pinning and punch at the gut.’
 ‘Darkly seductive… outstanding’ – Uncut‘Potent gothic folk’ 
 – ClashThis concert takes place in Hallé at St Michael’s – a former
  Roman Catholic church\, which was founded in 1859 and became the heart of
  the Little Italy Community in Ancoats.Poster hand-painted by Toria Wooff.
