Echo and a holeEcho Beatty and Tim Holehouse are playing at 9PM tonight at TAC, Temporary Art Centre Eindhoven.
I’ve checked out a few of their vids on youtube and they’re quite different. If you like music you can just drift away with, then Echo Beatty is just the ticket. If you want to see a bluesy (or sometimes, totally off his nut) young Tom Waits, then the Brit Tim Holehouse may be what you’re looking for.
Zimmer Frei or Fiesta del Sol … which country is Eindhoven in?Why is it interesting that a significant Dutch village in the south of Holland should have two very different festivals with foreign names take place over the one weekend? What do these events say about the self-image of this post-industrial town? Why does this big village have to borrow holiday references to give itself credibility? Where is Eindhoven really; who is it? Where does the real character of Eindhoven “happen” and who makes it happen?
