James Hollingsworth and Ash Mandrake each perform a set of songs by the late great Tim Buckley with their bands as part of Bath Fringe Festival. Hollingsworth will be appearing with Sandro Granda on percussion, Zac Gregory on double bass, Danny Shayler on guitar and Tobi Hunke on vibrophone. The Mandrake Project are Ash Mandrake (guitar and vocals), Amadou Diege (percussion), Catherine Hurley (flute) and Daniel Ebl (bass).

"Probably the first thing to strike every listener is James striking voice. The only comparison I can readily make, is to the voice of Tim Buckley, and this is something I do not suggest glibly. The vocals rise clear and pure, soaring high as they deliver the words... in places they will drop in pitch to bring emphasis to certain lines and phrases. This is a talent few singers possess and in the right hands it becomes a most effective tool. It is little wonder that legendary producer John Burns (Genesis, Jethro Tull, etc) recently exclaimed "What a voice!" I only wish Id heard it before now." - Woven Wheat Whispers.
