Andy Bell - Torsten the Bareback Saint - (CD Hardback Book)
In an amazing and surprising career move and, in his own words, the biggest challenge of my career so far, Erasures Andy Bell is Torsten the Bareback Saint. Andy sings in character as an age-defying polysexual in an all new solo album that is the soundtrack to the theatre show of the same name. A theatre show that is headlining the Assembly - Venue One, George Square at the 2014 Edinburgh International Fringe Festival and which, even before opening, has been already been named in The Times newspaper as being in their Times 2 'Top Ten Pick Of The Fringe'.
Torsten the Bareback Saint is a highly theatrical and moving song-cycle of lyrical postcards from the hotspots of an outsiders memory; memories from a life lived as a semi-immortal, learned sensualist. Andy Bell as Torsten sings deeply affecting expositional songs that incrementally illuminate his extraordinarily mysterious life as a man disconcerted by his own bizarre experience of the nature of passing time.
Torsten is an everyman for our times; a prophet of longing, loss and love ever after.
The CD is housed in a deluxe 36 page hardback book containing the full libretto and production photographs.
Andy Bell - Torsten the Bareback Saint was released on 28th July 2014 and is available now.
