Live Music
Musician and poet Vinny Peculiar (AKA Alan Wilkes) has released 13 albums so far, which he considers as "outsider pop music".
听
His various bands have included ex-members of The Smiths, Oasis and Aztec Camera.
听
His latest album pays homage to his time as a former nurse and recalls visiting his late brother who was schizophrenic, spending a lot of time in mental health and learning disability units.
听
Vinny was tutored and inspired by Clifford T Ward at North Bromsgrove High School with Tom Robinson later saying "Vinny Peculiar songs make you laugh, cry and think at the same time".
听
"A complete wordsmith whose albums you
have to listen to time and time again." - Andrew Marston.
