We are utterly delighted to welcome BC Camplight to Ramsgate on Sunday 4th June for a special solo piano show!
Brian is one of our all-time favourite songwriters; a truly unique voice in modern music. His latest single has not left our ears since its release! A creative genius with unrivalled consistency.
“A tumultuous pop masterpiece” – The Guardian (5 star review)
Is there a curse that says Brian ‘BC Camplight’ Christinzio cannot move forward without being knocked back? That the greatest material is born out of emotional trauma?
Whilst making his new album ‘The Last Rotation Of Earth’, Christinzio’s relationship with his fiancé crumbled after nine inseparable years. The album follows this break-up amid long-term struggles with addiction and declining mental health. The outcome is an extraordinary record, with Christinzio describing it as “more cinematic, sophisticated and nuanced than anything I’ve done before.” He goes on to describe how the separation altered his creative focus and caused him to “scrap 95% of what I’d already recorded”, finishing ‘The Last Rotation Of Earth’ in two months and making what he believes to his most vital album.
Ten years later Christinzio is still making important music, still channelling the forces that have beleaguered him and making the most honest and candid work he can, because anything else wouldn’t be BC Camplight.
“Paranoid, doomy synths temper the classicism of Christinzio’s luxuriant Harry Nilsson songwriting” – Q Magazine
“It’s a spellbinding and utterly wonderful thing” – The Line of Best Fit
“Even though this is an album that has its moments of darkness, there’s an irrepressible spirit and joy contained in almost every single song here” – Music OMH
