Promoter Paul Giblin - PhonicZappa night with Treacherous Cretins feat. Bobby Martin
Treacherous Cretins is a UK-based band that performs the works of the legendary American composer Frank Zappa. Its members have played and collaborated with the likes of Dweezil Zappa, Ike Willis, Ray White, Denny Walley, Craig “Twister” Steward and Candy Zappa.
For this tour they will they are performing two punishing sets with Bobby Martin, multi-instrumentalist regular member of Zappa’s band from 1982’s challenging ‘Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch’ album all the way up the great man’s passing!
In 2019, their set was a highlight of the 30th Anniversary Zappanale Festival in Germany: a yearly festival dedicated to Zappa’s music which draws thousands of fans from all around the world.
With a particular fondness for the more obscure, hard-to-play material and deep-cuts, Treacherous Cretins promises to deliver a tribute to Zappa unlike any other. Expect a generous helping of Zappa rarities and songs seldom played live by other bands as well as plenty of fan favourites.
