Death catches up with us all, sooner or later. The Tiger Lillies, however, prefer to meet it halfway.
The Tiger Lillies at A38 Ship on December 14th!
With over 40 albums to their name, this cult London trio has spent decades navigating a unique realm where dark cabaret, punk, chanson, and anarchic opera collide. In their world, sadness sits alongside black humor, beauty finds a place next to the grotesque, and tragedy is seasoned with a generous dose of the absurd.
*Songs for the Dead* begins precisely where most people prefer to look away: at death. Mourning, the afterlife, murder, remembrance, mortality—and the rather peculiar fact that, eventually, everything comes to an end.
Martyn Jacques, Adrian Stout, and Budi Butenop will revisit Tiger Lillies classics—including songs like "Heroin," "Gin," and "Crack of Doom"—and combine them with new material to craft an evening where the dead sing, the living listen, and tragedy occasionally—and quite unexpectedly—provokes a laugh.
The band returns to Budapest this December to perform once again on the A38 Ship!
