AS well as releasing their Greatest Hits album last year, A Curious Life – a film about the Levellers' rise to fame in the 1990s – premiered in June.
Told through the unique perspective of Jeremy Cunningham, the band’s bass player and artist, and directed by former Chumbawamba frontman Dunstan Bruce, the film focuses on the Levellers' phenomenal success between 1988 and 1998 before they disappeared for a time.
However, despite reaching their lowest ebb, the band never split up and, after a few years in the wilderness, they reinvented themselves as a self- managing collective with their own studio, label and Beautiful Days festival, and in the process became unexpected survivors of the UK’s famously fickle music industry.
A Curious Life is being shown at Salisbury City Hall on January 28. Cert 15 +.
Tickets cost £20 in advance or £23 on the door.
All tickets purchased online will also be subject to an additional £1.50 transaction fee per ticket.
