A singular voice, part savant-genius, part court jester, Richard Dawson’s music echoes with the voices of the past, present and future. The black-humoured bard of Newcastle returns to headline Supersonic 2020 following many a memorable performance on line-ups gone by. Amongst shambolic guitar-driven arrangements, this modern-day storyteller delivers poignant songs that uncover an island country in a state of flux; a society on the edge of mental meltdown.
