Tiny Ruins To Collaborate w/ David Mitchell (Cloud Atlas) For WORD Christchurch 2021 Annabel Kean / Wednesday 4th August, 2021 1:31PM
Tiny Ruins' David Mitchell (author of Cloud Atlas and Matrix 4 co-writer!, not the 3Ds guitarist) linked up over lockdown, and got to work on a project they've aptly titled If I Were A Story And You Were A Song. For this year's WORD Christchurch festival in Ōtautahi the two wordsmiths will perform each other's works in brand new ways, with Mitchell beaming in via video from Ireland for Tiny Ruins-tinged readings, sharing the result of taking five of Fullbrook's most popular tracks and turning the dial from folk song to short fiction. Fullbrook will be holding the fort at Christchurch's James Hay Theatre at the Town Hall, singing new songs inspired by three of Mitchell's unpublished short stories.
