Tom McRae, long regarded as one of the UK’s finest singer songwriters promotes the release of his sixth studio album, From The Lowlands, the second part of the critically acclaimed 2010 release, The Alphabet of Hurricanes.

FAILURE (& other opportunities for non linear success) Mary Pearson Left standing at the disco. Caught naked on the red carpet. Gathering dust after the big sale. Expired. Bagged. Tagged. And recalled. Stuck somewhere amongst the glitter and glamour of Las Vegas, magic, and selling cars… a fashion victim, aspiring pop diva, and chronic underachiever is consumed by delusional fantasies of commercial success. Watch with amusement, outrage, empathy, embarrassment and relief as her pedestal becomes a soapbox and her FAILURE turns into freedom. A new solo performance bringing together...
