A gig held at The Golden Guinea on Sunday 28th April. The event starts at 12:00.
Helen McCookerybook, one of the original She-Punks, pioneering musician and John Peel favourite, was originally bass player and lead singer with 70/80s punk band The Chefs and later Helen and the Horns www.mccookerybook.com
McCookerybook is currently touring the UK and will be appearing in Bristol on Sunday 28th April, at The Golden Guinea, 19 Guinea St, Bristol BS1 6SX www.thegoldenguinea.co.uk as part of a Pop! Not Hate benefit with Lonely Tourist, Jonny Kinkaid, the Tall Boy, the 12-hour Foundation in an afternoon of free music to celebrate the positive in turbulent times!
McCookerybook will be playing tracks from her latest album The Sea, by Helen McCookerybook, which has featured on BBC 6Music and Resonance fm and garnered acclaim - “Down to backing vocals which sound like an angelic cavalcade, The Sea’s true beauty and seriousness unravels” - Louder Than War and her latest single ‘Saturday Night with the London Set’, featuring her characteristically witty lyrics and upbeat melody.
In 2007 the multi-talented McCookerybook, (AKA Dr. Helen Reddington), published ‘The Lost Women of Rock’, a ground-breaking book recognized for its frank and critical analysis of women breaking into a male domain. The book was turned into a powerful documentary ‘Stories from the She Punks: music with a different agenda’ (2018, UK, 45 mins), directed by McCookerybook and Gina Birch of the Raincoats which had its successful world premiere at London’s 2018 Doc’n Roll Festival. After a sell-out screening in Belfast in January, it is currently touring the UK (for cities and dates visit www.mccookerybook.com
The wide appeal of McCookerybook distinct song writing and vocals, her evident wit and intelligence, prompts airplay on an eclectic mix of radio stations from 6Music, Juice FM’s ‘Midnight Campfire’ and interestingly BBC Radio Scotland’s nan Gaidheal, a Scottish Gaelic station that embraces her music. McCookerybook’s talent as a luminous chronicler of the heart will light up the Golden Guinea in April don’t miss it!
