Barry Adamson

Marc Riley has a live session from Barry Adamson, who has played with Magazine, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Diamanda Galas.

Barry Adamson in session live as you like tonight. Marc's been playing his single In Other Words and it's a cracker.

Adamson is one of Manchester's lesser-sung musical heroes who, after starting out with Howard DeVeto's Magazine was one of Nick Cave's Bad Seeds during their hell-raising 1980s heyday before going it alone with his debut solo release Moss Side Story.

His rich and varied solo career has seen him collaborate with real-life banshee Diamanda Galas, soundtrack a David Lynch film and occasionally play with the Bad Seeds as well as producing his solo projects.

With 2016's Know Where To Run, Barry Adamson persists in keeping audiences guessing at every twist and turn in his ongoing Moss Side Story.
