Peter Murphy on David Bowie

The Dark Side of David Bowie

When: 30th October | 7 p.m.
Where: Wexford Library
Cost: Free

 

For this, the third of the library’s annual fringe festival artist-themed talks, a Halloween special. Writer and musician Peter Murphy will partake in a public discussion with Tom Mooney about the dark materials buried in Davy Jones’s locker. From the occult esoterica of The Man Who Sold the World and the dystopian visions of Ziggy, Aladdin Sane and Diamond Dogs, to the cocaine chill of Station to Station… From his role as an ageless vampire in Tony Scott’s The Hunger to playing an FBI agent in David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me… From the gothic serial-killer concept album Outside:1 to the final metaphysical Blackstar.

Join us as we take a look at David Bowie’s shadow side.
