Link in my bio ⬆️ So excited too bring this back with these amazin friends an artists 👊💥 “In September of 2019, with the help of amazing friends, producers and institutions, “The Lion, the Witch and the Cobra” was performed at The Barbican Centre in London, England. I described the evening as “a collective reverberation to these tumultuous times channeled through Sinead O’Connor’s debut album”. I had dreamt of this evening for many years, and the ways in which it came together were brilliant and powerful. As CHRISTEENE, I was joined by a band of incredible musicians and two special guests, my dear friends Peaches and John Grant. Together, we navigated the waters of Sinead’s first album, “The Lion and the Cobra”, not only to address the darkness of the times we were in with ignorant, dangerous, men in power, but to howl in praise of the influence of a woman who, against all odds, beat down the patriarchal system and took on the darkness and lies of the Vatican through her gifts as a phenomenal singer and songwriter. I always expected this evening to live and breathe only once, and then disappear…however, it continued to find me, as did Sinead’s music and strength during extremely tumultuous times in her life over the past few years. We are still in dark times, darker than I could have ever foreseen. We are still suffering at the hands of ignorant and dangerous men, and we are now without the physical form of Sinead O’ Connor roaming this earth, howling at its injustices and singing of love and understanding. There is no better time than now to ignite the flame of this show once again. To call to arms and gather our voices and our physical forms in recognition of the dangers we face as a people, and of a woman who faced those dangers head on.” – CHRISTEENE 👊💥🕊️ artwork @katerinajebb flier design @brett_lindell @christeene_official @arktype @peachesnisker @mxviv @light_asylum
