Tim O'Connor & Mr W's Birthday Gig

It is time to celebrate that O’Connor and Mr Whiteley have between them succumbed to 126 years of thought provoking revelation and world encompassing travel, contemplating contentment and delight in their musical adventures.

You are invited to join us at O’Rileys Backroom on 20th October for a celebration of two chaps giving entropy the middle finger and having a jolly time doing so.

There will be music and the revealing of chin for charity:

The Beard Shave!:
Tim is having a shave!
To raise funds for Joshua’s Light Foundation, a charity close to his heart, Tim will be going under the razor and barring his chin to the world for the first time in some considerable time.
Donations can be given at: Just Giving

The music:
Shell the Alternative Folkie:
An original songwriter who draws on her love of the Earth, Life & Death for inspiration.
With just her guitar and drum she uses dark gothic visuals, while singing softly and belting out her vocals in equal measure to captivate her audience.

Tim O’Connor & The Poachers:
TO’C & The Poachers confound the lethargy of the familiar, encouraging liberal libation and involuntary rhythmic exercise through the mediums of ale, song and fret-wizardryness.
Performing original Contemporary Fables of English Wildlife, Clipper Ships and Poached Naughtiness, who’s tongue in cheek and sometimes sentimental songs are accompanied by cautionary tales of Dubiously Duplicitous Morals with Unapologetic Social Commentary, Tim O’Connor & The Poachers are anything but asleep.

Note from Tim: please remember that Josh supported myself and many others within the rich seam of artists in the Hull Music Scene, so it is only right we in turn continue to support this annual celebration of both his life and the amazing @Joshuas Light Foundation, set up and tirelessly overseen by his sister, Leah, and Sue, Josh’s mum.

Joshua’s Light Foundation is the only financial beneficiary of this chin-baring fundraiser. Please follow the link above and learn about the important and necessary work this Charitable Foundation undertakes.
Thank you.
Chin chin. X
