As part of the 2024 Farsley Literature Festival we are excited to announce, an evening at the Old Woollen with music journalist, DJ & author Paddy Clark about his latest release Bedsit Land – The Strange Worlds of Soft Cell. Paddy will be joined in conversation with journalist, broadcaster and musician John Robb.
Soft Cell are more than just a pop band. Marc Almond and Dave Ball may be best known for the string of hits they released in 1981, but the powerful first phase of their collaboration embraced a staggering array of sounds, influences and innovations that would change the face of music to come.
