Cracker were formed by Camper Van Beethoven singer David Lowery and Johnny Hickman in 1991. They are best known for their platinum-selling 1993 album, Kerosene Hat, featuring the hit songs"Low", "Euro-Trash Girl", and"Get Off This". The 2 founding members stop at The Fleece for the first date of their UK tour as an acoustic duo performing songs from both Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven.
Main support is from Blue Aeroplanes frontman Gerard Langley and long term accomplice Rodney Allen who will also be performing together as an acoustic duo for the first time in over a decade playing stripped down versions of Blue Aeroplanes songs and more.
First on are Deer Park. In July 2009, Irish-born singer, songwriter and guitarist Mark Christopher Grassick went into a makeshift studio in a run-down South London hotel with a cobbled together assortment of musicians and producer Paul Hollingsworth. The result was Deer Park, a record of ten country-tinged songs that has received unanimous critical acclaim.
