“That rock ‘n’ roll lady takes a space-ship ride”
Daphne Guinness and Kevin Armstrong will be guests of Tony Visconti and Woody Woodmansey for the Holy Holy show at The Garage in London on September 17.
Daphne is an artist, actress, model, designer and singer who has recently recorded with Tony, though Bowie fans may be more familiar with her beautiful face via a photoshoot she did for Vogue Germany (January 2012), which included striking Bowie-flavoured recreations from Aladdin Sane through TJ Newton.

Guitarist Kevin Armstrong worked with David Bowie from 1985-1995 including on Absolute Beginners, the Tin Machine I album and attendant tour, on 1. Outside – co-writing the title track with Bowie – and also as musical director at Live Aid and the Bowie/Jagger version of Dancing In The Street.
Kevin will be reunited on stage with Erdal Kizilcay at The Garage; Kevin and Erdal recorded together with David Bowie on Iggy Pop’s 1986 Blah Blah Blah album. The pair also performed the 1988 version of Look Back In Anger live with David Bowie and Reeves Gabrels at the Dominion Theatre in July 1988, as part of the Intruders At The Palace benefit concert for the ICA.
There will be a further surprise guest appearance at the Garage.
