Biscotti – by Robyn Hitchcock and John Paul Jones
Cecil Sharpe House, London, Kennedy Hall
‘Giovanni Biscotto e suo fratello Robyno hanno fatto uno pomodoro di fagioli

For the first time in the UK, the psyche’n'western stringsmiths unleash their edible

take on the capital of showbusiness, at Cecil Sharp House, for only one night. History never forgets.

John Paul Jones
JPJ became a prolific musical director and arranger of a huge range of prominent sixties artists before forming Led Zeppelin with Jimmy Page in 1968. His career since The Zepp has featured some impressive collaborations, with Dave Grohl and Josh Homme in Them Crooked Vultures, Supersilent, Paul McCartney, Brian Eno, The Butthole Surfers, Diamanda Galas, Robyn Hitchcock and more….
