Edgar Broughton + Luke Broughton

Edgar Broughton, of legendary Proto-Punk outfit The Edgar Broughton Band, returns to the Donkey in Leicester for the first time in nearly a decade to perform material from his new LP Break The Dark for this intimate and rare live show.

This stunning record began life during the enforced COVID lockdown and evolved into a project that is truly special. The album features appearances by Edgar Broughton Band member Arthur Grant and cellist Calle Arngrip and has been mixed by the acclaimed producer and engineer John Leckie (who began his career as a Tape Operator on the first Edgar Broughton Band album Wasa Wasa).

Break The Dark sees Edgar Broughton evolve his songwriting craft into something quite remarkable. It is a record which ranks as one of his most accomplished works.

Release date - October 27th on Cherry Red Records.

Luke Broughton will return to the Donkey off the back of a run of sold out shows and headline festival appearances to bring their ethereal and spine tingling sound, filling the rafters with beautiful and profoundly moving songs about love and loss that are both achingly personal and universally relatable. Heartbreaking and soul soothing in equal measure.
