Everybody wants to touch me

 

Australian cabaret legend (and Surry Hills native) Paul Capsis has just released his first studio recording, Everybody Wants to Touch Me upon the heels of a highly successful season performing in the circus-cabaret-burlesque Absinthe at the Spiegeltent in New York.

According to Capsis’ website, www.users.bigpond.com/paulcapsis, ”Capsis will drop the mask, wipe off the make-up and step up as himself, performing songs from the full spectrum of his inspirations – and for the first time, songs of his own creation.

“In a full-scale rock show produced by the creative team that brought you “Hedwig and the Angry Inch” with backing from a fabulous line up of musicians led by ARIA nominated Alister Spence, Capsis will sing pop, rock, soul and gospel in a way only he can. This will be Paul’s only concert appearance in Sydney for over a year as he heads into “Tales From the Vienna Woods” for the Sydney Theatre Company, followed by a swift jump to the left as Riff Raff in the cult rock show “The Rocky Horror Show”.”

Capsis is performing a one-night only showcase at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney tonight, November 11, and Everybody Wants to Touch Me is available now on CD and at iTunes.
