Tattooed Brit sensation Amy Winehouse’s May 12th and 13th sold-out Mod Club end-of-tour shows look to be the concert highlight of the year. How hot are the dates? One NOW underling we know paid a scalper 300 bucks to hear Rehab in person. But now that UK eccentric Patrick Wolf has been added to the bill, three C-notes seems cheap.
Although he’s all of 23, Wolf already has several CDs of moody singer-songwriter electronica under his belt and has been described as a cross between Ziggy Stardust-era Bowie and early Kate Bush. He’s even been known to cover Running Up That Hill in concert.
The peculiar pop star – he’s said to make all of his own clothing by hand – goes mainstream with the imminent North American release of The Magic Position. Here’s the title track and first single from this superstar in the making.
