Music: Celloman

One of the bands I love is Celloman. The band consists of Ivan Hussey and various supporting musicians, including Samy Bishai who also plays for Digitonal. The music is Middle Eastern/African in flavour, not the sort of thing you would normally associate the cello with but it works beautifully.

Two photos I took of a Celloman gig I went to in 2008. It was held at the Acorn Theatre in Penzance. The Acorn was a chapel in a previous life and is a great space for an informal relaxed sort of gig. It is down a little side street in the centre of Penzance.




Then across the road there is the most beautiful regency style building. Looking like an immaculate dolls house.
He's touring again soon, hope he comes down to Cornwall.

  2. Unfortunately the Acorn is scheduled to close at the end of this month. It will be a real shame if they let it go.
