Previously unreleased Hi-NRG, synth-pop, wonky rock n' roll from a queer Manchester underground icon of the 80s and 90s. This release also features radio spots, demos and accapella versions. A definitive collection showcasing the oeuvre of this unique performer.

By day, Avril Eventhal was a housewife in North Manchester's Orthodox Jewish community. By night, she was the fabulous Avril A, a larger than life cabaret performer who found a loyal audience in gay venues across the country and was adored for her outrageous live shows.

With her signature leopard print dress and feather duster in hand she delivered an unforgettable song and dance routine - as it was billed, “an audio-visual assault on the audience”.

She celebrated her unconventional style, finding joy and space for creative reinvention with the queer community.

Avril died in 2017, leaving behind a massive archive of material documenting every aspect of her career in songwriting and performance and finally these rare audio recordings have come back to life.
