Description

James GreenWow! A fantastic return to regather for a good friend of the venue, and this time with a new release to showcase!!!Donkey Jukebox was initially conceived as part of an art installation in Sheffield in 2014. James built a donkey-world inside the snug bar of a pub, which included prints, 200 wooden donkeys, a straw floor and a donkey 'jukebox'.Following the event, James worked further on the 'jukebox', now intended as a fully-fledged companion to his 'donkey world' prints. The interest in donkeys started just as a way of championing the (sometimes undervalued) beasts, and has turned into an intensive creative channel for James' artwork.The music was created using mostly a harmoniflute (19 th century French lap organ) and a loop machine. James made loops of differing lengths and built them into pieces that never repeat themselves.



This is James' second solo album, the first being 'Tempers' (Early Winter Recordings, 2004). He recently collaborated with Alasdair Roberts on the 'Plaint Of Lapwing' LP (Clay Pipe Music, 2016) and is the founder and leader of 'The Big Eyes Family Players' who have released seven albums, most recently 'Oh!' (Home Assembly Music, 2016).
Outside of music, James is an artist/printmaker and works primarily in linocut and screen-print.



For the show he will be accompanied by Mark Armstrong (who mixed the album), and the music will be alongside a donkey animation film made in collaboration with Finger Industries. In short, the project is James' attempt to combine his art/print and musical endeavours, for the first time.

His releases on the Blast First Petite, Folklore Tapes, Hood Faire and World in Winter labels have been critically acclaimed by The Wire Magazine, Uncut Magazine, Record Collector Magazine, MOJO Magazine, Music OMH, Dusted Magazine, Brainwashed, The Out Door, Drowned in Sound and The Quietus amongst others.
