Paul Capsis: Dry My Tears – Sunday 17 July at the Brunswick Picture House

Legendary Australian artist Paul Capsis leaves microphones and costumes behind in his first ever solo acoustic performance.

Join Paul on this gritty musical journey that begins in the streets of 1930’s Berlin with the music of Kurt Weill (The Threepenny Opera) and John Kander (Cabaret). Influences of Marianne Faithfull, Jimmy Scott and Nina Simone will break your heart in music by Richard Rogers, Elton John and Billy Joel before your tears are dried and you can smile once more in jazz and ragtime songs by Melody Gardot and Johnny Mercer.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see this icon of the Australian stage Close-Up and unplugged in this intimate and moving recital, with Francis Greep on piano. This collaboration is part of The Song Company’s Close-Up series — extraordinary artists performing extraordinary music.
