Closing out our Live at the Lyric Spring 2017 Series, The Lyric Theatre is very excited to present Robyn Hitchcock, the Godfather of Alternative Rock. Come out for a very special live event on the eve of the release of his latest album!

Robyn Hitchcock is one of England's most enduring contemporary singer/songwriters and live performers. A surrealist poet, talented guitarist, cult artist and musician's musician, Hitchcock is among alternative rock's father figures and is the closest thing the genre has to a Bob Dylan (not coincidentally his biggest musical inspiration).

"A gifted melodist, Hitchcock nests engaging lyrics in some of the most bracing, rainbow-hued pop this side of Revolver. He wrests inspiration not from ordinary life but from extraordinary imaginings..." -Rolling Stone

Since founding the art-rock band The Soft Boys in 1976, Robyn has recorded more than 20 albums as well as starred in Storefront Hitchcock an in-concert film recorded in New York and directed by Jonathan Demme.

Blending folk and psychedelia with a wry British nihilism, Robyn describes his songs as 'paintings you can listen to.'




With special guest Cale Tyson

"Old school, sad-bastard country for a new generation of excited country fans."
-Rolling Stone

"The twenty-five-year-old from Cleburne, Texas, isn't the first skinny kid to wear a cowboy hat and a pearl-snap shirt in tribute to the giants of vintage country, but he is one of just a few whose lovesick blues actually sound like they come from the heart."
-Garden & Gun Magazine

"His sweet yet melancholy lyrics feel like they were probably written on a whiskey-stained bar napkin, just the way good country songs should be."
-Wide Open Country

"Tyson channels all the woe and despair you could find in his native Texas on the album, crafting meandering and warbling ballads that harken back to the heartbreak songs of old country. You'll find all the usual suspects of the lonely hearts club soundtrack, but Tyson's rich vocals evoke empathy and more than a little second-hand despair.
-American Songwriter Magazine


A Cash Bar with Beer and Wine will be available.

Ticket prices range from $32 to $20 depending on seat location.
