BUCK
65
& OLYMPIC LIFTS
SATURDAY MAY 8
THE FRONT PAGE 9.00PM
Buck 65 (Richard Tefry) was born and raised near
Halifax Nova Scotia and developed two main passions in life:
baseball and hip-hop. When his dreams of being a big time
ball player in the major league were never fully realised.
His attention became fully focussed on music.
Buck 65 is about as different to the stereotype of a modern
rapper as you can be. Sonically Buck 65 has developed his
own unique take on hip-hop; sincere and honest lyrics tell
stories of real life experiences and are delivered in a style
more Bob Dylan than Bad Boy Entertainment.
His diverse influences are testament to his style and include
Grandmaster Flash, Tom Waits, Simon and Garfunkle, Johnny
Cash, DJ Supreme and Fats Waller.
There are several stories regarding Buck 65 - his work for
Sesame Street, Biz Markee steeling his John Travolta break,
hanging out with Radiohead. Buck 65 has a world-wide fanbase
that includes Aphex Twin and Vincent Gallo.
Tickets £6.00 on the door
