Robyn Hitchcock brings his singular blend of surrealist folk-rock and psychedelic pop to Cambridge for an intimate evening. Known for his witty, eccentric lyrics and distinctive guitar work, Hitchcock has been a cult figure since his days fronting the influential Soft Boys in the late 1970s. Fans can expect a set drawing from his vast solo catalog, including classics like "Balloon Man" and "Madonna of the Wasps," alongside deeper cuts.
The show offers a rare chance to see a musician whose work has inspired bands like R.E.M. and The Replacements. Hitchcock's performances are known for their dry humor and unpredictable charm, in a city that has been part of his story since his early busking days.
