Strange Victory and Out to Lunch present: Beth Jeans Houghton & The Hooves of Destiny + support by Katie and the Carnival at The Black Box

8.00pm

Her new album “Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose” introduces one of the most self-assured new artists of the year, a pop polymath whose blend of psychedelia, glam rock and chain gang folk is quite unlike anything else you’re likely to hear in 2012. Like her utterly unique stage outfits, it’s made from disparate individual elements that wouldn’t work on paper, but sing out like a holy choir in the execution.

In the past few years 21-year-old Newcastle singer/songwriter Beth Jeans Houghton has garnered a reputation as an antidote to the current crop of acoustic songstresses.

A fresh talent with songs so well crafted and instantly classic that most people would give up a left arm for her formidable song-writing skill: welcome to the world of Beth Jeans Houghton, hailed by the NME as "a Joni Mitchell for the anti-folk generation"

"A considerable talent, with a remarkable voice and a rare star quality" Mojo
