Robert Baxter @ Metro Social, 18th Feb
“Robert Baxter bursts off the stage tonight in both metaphor and reality, all show and all heart. The joy in the performance infects and it incites – we’re puppets on strings, dancing to the many and varied pop, house, garage, or drum ‘n’ bass beats and bangers that we are yanked along to.

“Major Arcana’s heavy set occasionally breaks out into slightly – ever so – less earsplitting territory, small glimmers of sun from behind the thunderheads. It’s those tiny breaks of light that make the set whole, moments where there’s brightness amid the dark, just letting it go for a snatch of time, before it all comes […]
