Withered Hand is the musical project of Edinburgh-based artist Dan Willson – a witty, anti-folk singer who has drawn favourable comparisons with Daniel Johnston, Palace Music, Neil Young and Jeffrey Lewis. Following two EPs through Fence Records in Scotland, Good News is the band’s first album, mixed by cult American producer Kramer (Low / Galaxie 500 / Daniel Johnston), and released by SL Records in the UK and Absolutely Kosher in the US. Good News continues to gain endorsement from quarters as diverse as DJ and indie superstar Jarvis Cocker, alternative music legend Julian Cope and comedian Daniel Kitson.

Joining Withered Hand on the bill is Men Diamler - one of the most exciting and unpredictable performers around, joining the dots between traditional British folk-song, Sacred Harp-esque devotional blues, performance art and a hearty wit.
