Daniel Johnston

OH Productions presents Daniel Johnston and special guest Laura Marling

Tickets from WeGotTickets.com, Ticketline.co.uk and on 0161 832 1111.

Daniel Johnston has spent the past 20 years exposing his heart-rending tales of unrequited love, cosmic mishaps, and existential torment to an ever-growing international audience. He began his prolific musical career in the early 1980s, recording albums including ‘Songs of Pain’ and ‘Yip Jump Music’ in his parent’s basement and self-releasing them on tape. His status as a cult icon has seen continual resurgence through the acclaim of the late Kurt Cobain, collaboration with Butthole Surfers and Sonic Youth, and covers of his music by artists such as Tom Waits, M Ward, Eels, Bright Eyes and Flaming Lips. He was recently the subject of a documentary: ‘The Devil and Daniel Johnston.’

We are excited to be using the Great Hall in Manchester Town Hall for the Manchester leg of this short tour. The venue, which is seldom used for concerts, really is something special - click here to view it.

After last year’s all-star show at in The O2 Arena, Daniel returns to the intimate location of his critically acclaimed 2007 performance, Union Chapel in London. ( Now Sold Out - New show on sale )

We are delighted to welcome Mercury Prize nominee Laura Marling as special guest for these UK shows.
