JOHN ROBB
John Robb will be touring his ‘Do You Believe In The Power Of Rock & Roll?’ talk through Ireland in September 2024.
The first half of the talk is a history of alternative rock from John Robb with slides and stories. The second half is an interview with an artist/musician/game changer about their journey.
The guests will be getting announced in the next couple of weeks…stay tuned for updates!
This collection follows John Robb's journey from the late 1970s, when he was first caught up in punk’s high-octane thrill, to the present day, via the early days of the rave scene, the birth of electronic and techno, and myriad bands that spun off on their own idiosyncratic paths
This is a brand new spoken word show currently on tour. John Robb talks about a life in music, his best selling book 'The Art Of Darkness/The History Of Goth', being the first person to interview Nirvana, coining Britpop, his adventures on the post punk frontline and so much more.
