“In the setting sun I’ll see that I love you”
Follow the Duct Tape Cowboy as they are whisked away into the wild west world of Six Shot Cinderella and her terrible gang, “The Sundown Seven.” Watch as their world is turned upside down and inside out as the love the two share spirals from the flames of passion to the fires of hell!
A story of obsession and wrath, sunsets and showdowns, told through the live musical stylings of the inimitable Laika Loveheart, “The Ballad of The Duct Tape Cowboy and Six Shot Cinderella” is a once in a lifetime experience you won’t want to miss.
“Haven’t you heard, I’m the new sun in the sky”
Supported by projected visuals, live narration, and some fabulous cowboy hats, this story is told through a new collection of songs from folk rock artist Laika Loveheart. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid meet Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars in this concept album turned live performance directed by Jessica Bennett (CHAIRS!) and Danielle Nicholson that explores the experiences of an emotionally abusive relationship and how someone can be stripped of their identity.
“Shoulda known trouble when it came to me down the barrel of a gun.”
